In search of a more healthy and active lifestyle, Debbie relocated to the East End of Long Island in 2001 to redesign her career and life. Shortly thereafter she created and opened Sag Harbor Pilates, a niche fitness studio teaching and sharing the benefits of Pilates with fitness enthusiasts. As part of the active community, she is interested in the continued development of products that allow us to visually express ourselves as we move through our lives.
Her current project is life-style, an active-minded boutique for women who want to look and feel great while they move through their lives. Debbie's knowledge and expertise in the apparel industry as well as her keen interest in local, organic and sustainable products all help to define the direction of the store. From great products, to the overall shopping experience, life-style is all about style, look, and comfort.
Debbie is a certified Pilates instructor, avid cyclist and yoga practitioner designing a balanced lifestyle for the future.
She is an active member of: The Fashion Group International, Pilates Method Alliance, Slow Food, USA, and Sag Harbor Chamber of Commerce.
Her affiliations include WEO: World Entrepreneurs Organization, ATEX: American Association of Textile Designers and Agents where as President for 3 years she developed what is now a successful trade event for apparel industry design studios worldwide.
