What makes you feel connected to Susan G. Komen and our mission to end breast cancer?
We feel honored to be able to help bring awareness to this disease and raise money to help put a stop to this cancer. We are four generations who yearly monitor our health with health care professionals as this breast cancer took the life of our Mother/Grandmother (Josephine) at a very young age!! Within our family we have even taken the genetic test, BRCA, in the continued monitoring of our family's health. Not only has this breast cancer taken the life of an immediate family member but recently took the life of a dear friend of our family (Heidi) a beautiful young life gone to soon. The Carter's connection to this cancer is one we do not ever take lightly and live with it in our lives daily, we will always be an advocate and supporter to anyone reaching out for awareness and help. As we are all in this fight together with all women let's put an end to breast cancer!!
Where might people get to see you with your wig on?
Everyday social events, out on the town having dinner, going to the movies, parties, even our workplace!!
What will be your competitive edge against the other BigWigs?
That's a big no-brainer - these babies, our 4th generation Carter-Rider twins. They are too cute!!!
What is one fun fact about you?
Having a good time is always at the top of our list. As Italians, it's in our blood to be crazy loud. We embrace any reason to be loud and cheering for our love of sports. Annually, we all attend NASCAR together! We were also lucky to have been chosen to all participate in the 50th Anniversary Super Bowl Half-Time Show! An experience of a lifetime!!!
