Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy Mother’s Day to my mom and to all of the moms out there! 

Starting a business is like raising children: it takes a village. I’m so fortunate to have a very supportive family to help me navigate this entrepreneurial journey of Experience Sicily. My mom has been generous and encouraging during these past years, through both heartaches and successes. Here we are together in Sicily in 2015, photographed in the village of Porticello, were my paternal grandfather was born and raised before emigrating to the United States. Thank you mom!
