I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida. I left Florida to go to college at Duke University, where I graduated with a degree in chemistry. Then it was back home to Florida for medical school at the University of Florida, where I met my husband, Ed Greco, while he was completing law school. I am happy to be celebrating 13 years of employement with Florida Health Care Plans, a local non-profit HMO that serves 60,000 residents of Volusia and Flagler Counties. I enjoy all outdoor sports, especially running, swimming and kayaking.
