Jamie is a mom to a daughter (2014) and boy/girl twins (2016) and rescue rabbit Gilbert. She was born and raised in Westchester County, NY and together with her husband (married in 2011), made Danbury, CT their hometown. She is fortunate to have found two dream jobs: a licensed Connecticut real estate agent with The Valentini Team at Coldwell Banker Realty and Children’s Programming Assistant at her local library. Both bring her joy because they allow her to help others—guiding families as they find a place to call home and inspiring children to develop a love of learning and reading from an early age. Before anyone in her house is awake, she can be found at Burn Bootcamp or on the Peloton leaderboard, which fuels her long days of work and momming. Morning workouts are as athletic as she gets, although getting her children to all their activities is like an Olympic sport, and her favorite thing is tucking her children in at night and catching up on whatever show she is streaming. As much as she loves staying in, she doesn’t pass up a night out or weekend away with her childhood girlfriends or a date night with her hubby.

“She’s your clone.” “She’s just like you.” “It’s your mini-me.” I cringe, give a smile, and think to myself, “I hope not.” I hear these comments regularly because...
