After graduating from college, she worked for a transportation company, and during that time frame, she gave birth to a special-needs child. Then, after retiring, she took on the role of president of a United Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau auxiliary, and for six years she published quarterly newsletters and chaired numerous fundraising events.
She is still active at Cerebral Palsy Nassau, and in addition, is involved in St. Anne's Parish Respite Care program for special-needs children and young adults. AHRC Nassau and St. Mary's Healthcare
System for Children are other affiliations that are close to her heart.
As the author of Waiting to Hear "Momma," she hopes to help others survive adversity, to let them know they are not alone. She further strives to bring awareness of the lack of age-appropriate residential facilities close to home for our medically fragile population.
She currently lives in Garden City, New York, with her husband and daughter.view less
