Hola! My name is Nathalie (41) from NYC (Woodside, Queens, NY) born and raised. I’m second generation Latina, my grandparents are Cuban and Puerto Rican. I speak Spanish and I need to do better at speaking it to my children!
My wife and I moved out to the suburbs Long Island, NY once our son was born. We have two precious littles, Leander (4 years old) and Annalee (almost 15 months). Also, I’m a proud dog mom to my peekapoo (Pekingese/Poodle mix) Stubby who is 19.5 years old! I previously worked at one of the Big Four Accounting firms in corporate America for 8 years but left in search of more rewarding work. I now work as an Accounting Manager for a non-profit organization that believes every kid is a math kid!
I’m excited to be a part of this community; to learn, grow, and adapt. I am beginning my weight loss journey (again). I look forward to learning more about nutrition, how to read labels and ingredients, get healthy meal ideas for myself and my family, as well as lowering my cholesterol. Approximately 5 years ago, I learned that I have a mild case of PCOS which could be the reason I struggle with losing weight, but I believe I can overcome that with knowledge.
One fun fact about me is that I played basketball and softball starting in 5th grade through High School. I then continued Softball in college and my during my sophomore year earned a batting average of .508 in the division! I recently started playing tennis too!
