Diane Rioux

Diane Rioux has no time for negativity or procrastination. How could she when her days are filled with the people and activities that bring her the most joy. Most Sundays you can find her in the kitchen whipping up something delicious. With some French cafe music playing in the background, she may be cooking coq au vin, lobster mac and cheese, or a big pot of soup. It all depends on the season. She loves cooking for family and friends and she makes sure to allow room for everyone, especially those that might otherwise be alone.

A Maryland native and former competitive tennis player (she still plays doubles any chance she gets), Diane takes every opportunity to get outside and explore her beautiful home state. She adores Tolstoy and is drawn to shows like Downton Abbey, historical documentaries, and dream house makeovers where she gets lost in the renovation possibilities.

But what really drives Diane is working with so many people at different stages of their lives. Like solving a puzzle, she thrives on putting all the unique pieces together and figuring out the best ways she can help people hit their goals.

In school she gravitated toward the humanities and developed a passion for writing. Her glass is always half-full and her motto is keep going and stay positive. Writing a book (or two) is a goal of hers and she even has a book idea in mind — a nonfiction book about persevering in tough times. We can’t wait to read it.
