One of my favorite things to do is to help people learn and grow to whatever level they find desirable. After Chess, Psychotherapy and Martial Arts are of keen interest. I taught chess at three Private schools, in Albany, Schenectady and Latham NY, and at my former Psychotherapy office.

My love for the Italian language and culture began at a very young age. Growing up, my parents always spoke to me in the dialect of Ciociaro.

By the age of 13, I was asked to speak at my high school's district board meeting about possibly funding and implementing an Italian program in the middle and ... Read more
