Romee was born and raised in El Paso. She struggled through years of IVF and was blessed to become a mommy in her forties. She's looking forward to shining a light on being an older mommy in this community. She has a BA in Broadcast Communication, with a minor in Women’s Studies and Psychology. Upon graduating from high school, she moved to Los Angeles to begin college and then moved overseas to Wiesbaden, Germany. During the next few years, she got a truly enriching, cultural, and fulfilling education by traveling through Europe, working as a bartender, as an announcer for the American Forces Network in Frankfurt, and as a lifeguard on the Italian Rivera. Later, Romee moved back to the U.S. and continued her career in broadcasting and in mental health. She has also worked as an actress for local and national commercials. She currently serves on the Keystone Heritage Park Board and the Down Syndrome Coalition. In the past she has served on JFED’s Jewish Film Committee, Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee, the Committee on Border Relations, and other boards. Being a mommy to her miracle boy and girl twins born in November 2014, destigmatizing mental illness, dancing, enjoying animals, and traveling are her passions.
