I am businesswoman. I own several businesses in New Orleans, which are going well. I am also in the process of opening a large adult related wellness center. It will be an expansion of one of my current business models. Ill be adding several new features including a Spa/Sauna, medicine and cold bathes, and a cyber oriented Fitness Center. Some of the kinky features will be a Fetish Play Room and Dominatrix Center.

How did you get started as a businesswoman?
I moved to New Orleans about eight years ago to help rebuild a school after Hurricane Katrina. After spending a few years as a schoolteacher, I got laid off. I used that painful lay off as motivation to push myself to do my own thing. So I put a business plan together, presented it to a bank and acquired a small business loan. I built a restaurant with that loan and it was very popular and successful. Ive been designing and operating successful business models since.

Tell us a little bit about your background.
I am black and Italian. Ive actually been researching a bit about my ancestry and I found that my grandfather migrated up to the North East of USA from Naples, Italy. He landed in New Haven, CT, which is where I was born and raised. Ive lived all over, though. Ive even lived in Saitama, Japan where I worked as a translator for the Japanese consulate.
