"I realized in February 2010 that social networking websites, as a way for men and women to connect, had become mainstream and acceptable.   I also realized that a certain niche was being ignored.  In our transient, online, and mobile culture, it has become increasingly more difficult for women to meet one another and build lasting friendships."

About Nancy

I was born and raised in an Italian neighborhood, to parents who had emigrated from Sicily.  My father was a tenacious man, who with a few dollars in his pocket came to New York City seeking the American Dream.

My intuition and confidence would always tell me that another job, a better job, was around the corner.  I never feared that I would not be able to support myself and my children!  I also knew that being happy was far more important to me than having money.  I began to live in possibilities! My “big break” came while I was working as a receptionist for a chiropractic office, and I met my “angel”, who was one of the practice’s clients.  He offered me an incredible job working for him as a salesperson with no pay, and no benefits!
