Raised on Long Island, NY, I ventured into Manhattan after college, living there until a year after the devastating events of 9/11. This experience shaped me profoundly, and ultimately led to my leap of faith relocation to Colorado Springs in 2004. While I love life in Colorado, an annual family pilgrimage back to NY for bagels and pizza (and to visit family!) is a tradition we do not miss.

​

My HR career began as a Recruiter on Wall Street in 1993. Over three decades, I've navigated the ever-changing world of Human Resources – time really does fly when you're having fun! Joining Vida HR in June 2018 was a significant milestone, where I've discovered my true calling as our Chief Operating Officer: empowering businesses and making a meaningful impact, a mission that energizes me daily.

A little about me:

At home, life is lively with my daughter Lyla , step-children Thomas, Ryan, and Nicole, my husband Eric, and my rescue dog Molly. We share a love for travel, exploring new places with at least two major trips each year and numerous local adventures in our camper. Having visited 44 states, I'm excited to explore the remaining six.
