M: Where are you from?

I’m a Brooklyn native. Specifically, the neighborhoods of Bensonhurst and Dyker Heights.

M: What inspires you?

Inspiration stems from feeling. 

• I’m inspired when emotions are elicited. To feel joy, sadness, empathy, drive and the will to say, act and do. 
• Along with learning that one has to overcome an adversity, I'm inspired when someone presents themselves with confidence; those who don’t surrender to their insecurities. 
• These quotes, “What would you do if you weren’t afraid?” and “Every expert was once a beginner.
• I'm inspired by potential. Potential for a person, neighborhood, community or society to develop and flourish. The potential for an idea to become a reality.

M: What are your hobbies?

As an Italian-American, the kitchen is a forum for all sorts of assembly and it is where I feel most at ‘home’. I’m the daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter of individuals who never complained about cooking. Cooking was their art, therapy and possibly their most beloved act to show their love. I love to cook, bake, entertain and it genuinely makes me happy to feed people. I’m an avid beach goer; coffee, Nutella and travel enthusiast; amateur food blogger; story teller; concert attendee; and a struggling New York Mets fan.

M: One thing we should know about you?

During the academic year, I am a speech and debate judge for the Brooklyn-Queens Catholic Forensics League. The ability to speak well and to help guide high school students in that capacity is extremely rewarding. 

M: How can we connect with you on social media?
