- Favorite Thing About My Job: Without a doubt, the people and the opportunity to collaborate! I am fortunate to work alongside such a talented and dedicated team. I love that no two days are ever the same, and each day brings new opportunities and challenges. If you know me, you know I love a good challenge! I believe challenges are what push us to grow, think differently, and create opportunities for success.
- Favorite vacation you’ve taken: Hands down, Italy and Sicily! I’ve been fortunate enough to visit twice, and I would go back every year if I could! From the incredible food and welcoming people to the beautiful beaches, rich culture, and breathtaking scenery, there’s truly nothing like it. Some of my favorite experiences include riding four-wheelers up Mount Etna in Sicily, taking boat rides through Venice, and enjoying the stunning Amalfi Coast. One of the most memorable moments of my first trip was visiting the small town of Regalbuto in Sicily, which shares my maiden name and family heritage. Seeing my family name on buildings and signs throughout the town was such a special and unforgettable experience. Italy will always hold a special place in my heart!
