I am the Founder & CEO of Private Packs, a personal wellness company that designs personal care products for intimate body parts.
My journey to entrepreneurship was a total accident, as I started my career in financial services. I then pivoted to personal wellness after an unfortunate Brazilian wax mishap, as well as lack of post-chemotherapy “down there” care solutions. Our first product is wearable and reusable hot and cold therapy pads for the vulva.
I have two missions in life. First, give women a little piece of heaven to comfort and calm their pain.
Secondly, I mentor new entrepreneurs because starting a business is hard enough. I try to provide guidance and support. Most recently, I became a mentor at the UNY NSF I-Corps program at Cornell University.
For fun, I love dancing!
Building my business while fighting stage three breast cancer, and launching and surpassing our crowdfunding campaign goal. I didn’t think I was going to be able to pull it off because I didn’t know how to beat a disease or launch a business. But it was a test of my grit and fortitude, as well as my ability to really believe in myself.

Journals: I love going to Papyrus or Anthropologie and checking out journals — the colors, binding, different papers, notebook size, etc.
Watching old movies: How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and Crazy, Stupid, Love.
