Born in New York, she now resides on Long Island with her husband, Michael, and two fun-loving rescue dogs.On a personal note, in 2008 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. After the rigors of a mastectomy and chemo I knew I needed to get out of my head. I had to stop looking back and begin looking forward. And so I began ballroom dancing at the age of sixty-four. Whoever would have thought at seventy-three I would still be going full steam ahead, traveling to different venues to compete. Dancing makes me feel alive. It gives me a sense of purpose; it challenges me. Dancing gives me balance, not to mention a better figure and stamina. I have learned that mountains are to be climbed, not to walk away from. And once you get to the top of the mountain, whatever your mountain may be, there is an incredible feeling of accomplishment.показать меньше
