Diana was a graduate of Avon CT High School, and received her Bachelor’s and Masters in Accounting from the University of Connecticut.

Driven and brilliant, she was recognized as a 40 Under 40 leader by the Hartford Business Journal and was selected as a Rising Leader by the American Council of Life Insurers. Diana was not only successful in her career, but she brought joy to everyone around her. She was the most kind, generous, thoughtful, and loving person, and was always ready with a smile.
