After her four children graduated from college, she earned degrees in physical therapy psychology, and exercise physiology. While attending college, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, and when she recovered, spent ten years as a member of the Living with Breast Cancer Program, organizing and maintaining the lending library and teaching breast self-exam. She has been a breast health educator, speaking at colleges, factories, stores and community centers and for 10 years she taught the exercise program for the Arthritis Society.
Today she is director of the Town of North Hempstead’s Yes We Can Community Center in Westbury. She is responsible for programming and maintenance of the facility and oversees an afterschool program with over 50 children and a summer activities program with 80 children.
