Tell us about your family: I have an Italian heritage with both sides of my family coming to the US through Ellis Island in New York. I was born and raised on a farm in Sterling, CO ~ the farm my great-grandparents settled. I grew up "doing chores" and riding horses. I still have relatives living in Italy whom I hope to meet one day!

What is your personal philosophy: Rise above the "noise" of life! Be YOU!

Why is this important to you?: I found this organization 12 years ago when I was in the process of healing from "life". We all have a journey and path we are on and it is constantly changing. I learned and grew immensely from my experience with the Mrs. Globe organization and, more importantly, the WIN Foundation at that point in my life. I have remained connected and active each year since in as much capacity as possible. This opportunity is paving a path for me to re-invent my commitment to WIN and breathe life back into a cause that is very near and dear to my heart!
