I moved to North Carolina from Brazil in 1997 to help my twin sister, a young widow, care for her niece. I have lived in Raleigh and Wake Forest since. Today I share a home with my husband - Alec ( New Yorker born), my 12- year old daughter - Molly, and 2 cute dogs, an adorable cockapoo - Scooter, and the newest member of the Family, a cute Yorkie - Oliver who is absolutely my passion.
