About

LaLa is a lifestyle influencer, disability advocate, and content creator based in the Hudson Valley, New York. She is no stranger to the entertainment industry, the stage, or the microphone. Growing up, she sang with bands throughout the region and quickly made a name for herself as a natural performer.

However, her passions go far beyond music. She loves cooking, dancing, photography, and videography. In addition, she enjoys traveling and trying new restaurants with her family.

LaLa is a proud mom to Gio and Giulina. She’s also the founder of The Cannoli Cart, her handmade cannoli business. When she’s not creating content or managing her brand, she volunteers as a licensed New York State wildlife rehabilitator. As a result, she spends time caring for injured and orphaned animals in her community.

As a Crohn’s and Colitis survivor, LaLa understands the toll chronic illness can take. After multiple surgeries, she began using her voice to raise awareness and support others. She shares her journey to help people feel seen, heard, and less alone.

Each week, LaLa co-hosts the Shawna and LaLa: Life Beyond The Mic podcast. Through honest conversations, she brings humor, warmth, and insight to topics like disability, parenting, and resilience.
