I love meeting women that push the envelope. They are so inspirational to me. Whether it’s that they beat cancer or they drive a dragster, I love the stories of where they are now and how they got there.

I was so excited when Dina Parise reached out to me on Linkedin and wanted to connect. She is a former hairdresser and loved the work that we do through Hello Gorgeous!

Dina is a former professional skater for the Ice Capades and has traded in her skates for tires and sequins for a fire suit! But don’t let her graceful exterior fool you! She means business on and off the track!

Having an eclectic background has led Parise into the realm of motivational speaking (not as cliché as it sounds) combined with elite athlete mentorship as well as keynote speaking for various companies and events. Parise has also ventured into the hosting side. Her days as a performer for the Ice Capades honed her skills for promotion, marketing, and on-camera work.

I am excited to team up with Dina to help spread the word about Hello Gorgeous! Dina has chosen Hello Gorgeous! as her charity of choice.

Take a listen to my interview with Dina to learn more about her career with the Ice Capades and as a female drag racer.
