Katlyn’s roots trace back to a close-knit Italian community nestled in the serene countryside of Pennsylvania. Growing up on the treasured family property, which nurtured four generations, was home to several family businesses, and featured a communal garden, laid the foundation for her core memories. The values of unwavering diligence, profound familial bonds, and an indomitable entrepreneurial spirit were woven into the tapestry of her central beliefs. Among these cherished recollections, Katlyn holds dear the teachings of her beloved Grandfather, who instilled in her the notion that their family name, Cinelli, meant “hard worker,” a sentiment that became deeply ingrained in her own set of values.
