She graduated from Glassboro State College (now Rowan University) with a BFA in Theatre Arts. She started and ran a successful party rental business for bounce houses, magic, and clowns called Couple A Clowns, and she taught at various children's theater summer camps.

Her loving heart and selfless spirit will be missed.
