Brianna grew up in a small town in the Hudson Valley of New York. She had hard working parents who both worked to provide for her and her brother. They taught her the value of money, how to save, and how to treat other people. She grew up very close to her grandparents and learned the value of wise elders and their experiences. She started working at age 14 to pay for the things she wanted and always had a job (or three) from Middle School through College. She was very fortunate and thankful for her parents to pay for her way through college at the local state university. This was something that she did not take for granted.
