Eryne’s love and devotion to her son lead her to work with many child advocacy programs such as NJ After 3 and Mercer County S.M.I.L.E/Gear-Up. An active PTA mom at Rivera and Joyce Kilmer Elementary Schools she also Volunteered at the boys and Girls Club of America where she taught culinary arts to the youth participants.
