Season's greetings to all of our Natural Awakenings readers. I am so excited to write my very first publisher's letter and introduce myself more formally to each of you. After 13-plus years working behind the scenes on Natural Awakenings, I am excited to take on the role of Publisher of Natural Awakenings Fairfield County & Housatonic Valley. I have worked on all aspects of this publication under three different publishers and now feels like the right time for me to continue to provide this wonderful community resource to our readers and advertisers. 

A little bit about me... I am blessed to have a very supportive family. My husband Chad and I have both worked from home for many years, which has given us the opportunity to be very involved with our children's day-to-day lives while also focusing on our connection and friendship. My son Anthony (nicknamed Tony) is fifteen and a sophomore in high school; my daughter Mariella (nicknamed Ella) is twelve and a seventh grader in middle school. They are very good students and advocates for themselves and their peers. They have learned a lot over the years watching me manage my own business from home; as a family we are all looking forward to seeing where this new path leads us.

Over the past 7 years I have worked side-by-side with Nicole, producing many amazing and beautiful, content-rich issues. These have encompassed so many topics that I find interesting and, many times, a refreshing change from what is otherwise available. My intention is to continue to provide the same level of interesting and relevant content to you each month. I am looking forward to meeting and speaking to many of you as time goes on and am always happy to chat. I can be reached via phone or text at 914-830-8306; I look forward to personally introducing myself and discussing my plans for the magazine. 

May this month of December be filled with much love and hope,
