PAMELA BADOLATO, CONTENT DIRECTOR
Pamela is a busy mother of four who uses her background in early childhood education to not only entertain her darling brood, but understand the youngest audience members of Philadelphia Family.

MAIRIN PETRONE, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT
Mairin joins us from Pittsburgh and hopes you won’t hold her love for the Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates against her. She received both her BS in Marketing and Leadership/Change Management and Master of Business Administration from Duquesne University. She has been a member of the Family Focus Media team since 2016 and also does work for the Philadelphia Flower Show and Pittsburgh Irish Festival.
LAUREN SZKOLNICKI, MARKETING COORDINATOR
Lauren is a communications and content design expert on a mission to help you express yourself! After four years in healthcare marketing, becoming eager to break into new industries, she started offering freelance marketing support for businesses of all kinds! Lauren currently resides in Mount Airy, Philadelphia. When she’s not zoned-in on her laptop during business hours, you will probably find her playing volleyball, cuddling her cats, hanging with friends, or she hopes – at a concert!
TATIANA SCIANCALEPORE, WRITER & CALENDAR EDITOR
Tatiana Sciancalepore is a writer, illustrator, & freelance copy editor with a serious case of Old-MacDonald-envy. If she could spend all day lounging about her garden with her goats and dog, she most certainly would; alas, her four children, writing career, and Etsy shop demand a fair share of her attention. She hopes her love of writing, paired with over 13 years of practical experience as a mom, will prove an invaluable asset to the families of the Bucks County Parent community.
JAMIE ROBERTIE, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR

KRISTEN MICUCCI, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER
A transplant from North Jersey, Kristen quickly fell in love with the charm of Philly and all of the city’s many offerings. Using her background in sales, she strives to connect with and spread the word of local businesses to support Philly’s ever-growing and diversifying families. When she isn’t wrangling her 5-year old, you can most likely find her walking around Port Richmond with her pup, perusing the shelves at Riverwards Produce, or getting ready for the arrival of the newest member of her family!
