Since I was the runner-up in "Hey, Can You Cook?! 4" in 2009, I have published a cookbook, "Donna's Dishes: Cooking for a Cure." The book contains 150 recipes that are quick and easy to follow, family friendly, and easy on your budget. I've sold over a thousand copies of the book at $10 a piece, of which 30 percent goes to charities for Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's, Down Syndrome and breast cancer, just to name a few. Any copies sold from this website will go directly to Rachael's Yum-O! organization. I have also appeared on several of our local TV shows, have done cooking demonstrations, competed in a few cook-offs, hosted modeling competitions, and a few talent shows. As you can see, it's been a busy few years!

Today I live in Coventry, Rhode Island (where I was born and raised) with my husband Michael, my daughter Angela and the boys Justin and Gian. We have two dogs Romeo and Bella, and two cats, Juliette and Doc, and a full household of love. I feel blessed to competing in "Hey, Can You Cook?! All-Stars." Rachael and her team are amazing, they are all so hard working and so nice, it's an honor to be part of such a great group of people. Thank you, and from my family to yours, Mangia Bom! ("Eat Well!")
