How did you get into the tanning industry?

[gap]A family friend, Jerry Frank, was running Cosmedico and invited me to join the company. I was looking for a new challenge at the time and he said he had just the thing! Here I am, almost 16 years later …

What do you like most about your job?[gap]

Every day is a new set of experiences. I never know what’s in store when I walk through the front door in the morning. Also, I’ve been able to meet people from across the country and around the world, wonderful people I’d never have known if it wasn’t for my job at Cosmedico.

 

[gap height=”65″]

What do you do in your spare time?[gap]

I love spending time with my daughter, Grace, who’s 13. Whether it’s coaching her soccer team, going fishing, hiking, or some crazy made-up adventure that we create on the spur of a moment.

 

[gap height=”65″]

Do you have a “pet peeve?”[gap]

Parking lots and parking lot etiquette! A little common sense goes a long way.

 

[gap height=”65″]

What’s your favorite food?[gap]

Living in the Northeast, I’ve been spoiled by all the wonderful seafood we have, but Buffalo wings are a very close second!

 

[gap height=”65″]

What’s your favorite TV show?[gap]

Right now, I’d say Game of Thrones, with The Walking Dead coming on a fast second.

 

[gap height=”65″]If we look at your “Bucket List,” what’s at the top?[gap]

I want to travel more for fun and enjoyment.
