As part of her passion for running, Nancy has coached Girls on the Run, a program designed to empower girls in grades 3-5 all over the country to become strong athletes and leaders. This experience of working with young athletes has been very rewarding for her.

Nancy’s collie Caleb volunteers with her for the pet therapy organization, Pals for Life.  Nancy and Robert have 3 adult children: Stephanie, a medical resident in Honolulu (and former Wharton statistics major), Brandon, an investment banker in NY, and Valerie, a recent Harvard graduate (and applied math major). Nancy also enjoys baking and knitting.
