Nat and her "Twinnies"

Natalie is the Founder of both Twiniversity and Multiplicity. Through these virtual outlets in just over one year’s time, Natalie has grown the businesses to be listed among top online resources, with reach to more than 10,000 families of multiples. As a result, she was named among the top 100 Social Media Moms by Disney.

As Twiniversity continues to expand, Natalie is currently compiling her first book, “Twiniversity 101: Twins Prep”. A born marketer and innovator, Natalie possesses the unique skill set that allows her to be well received by parents of young children and multinational corporations, alike. To this end, Natalie works as a brand ambassador for Britax B-Ready Strollers, as well as with companies like BigTent and PBS Kids 13. When not busy growing her businesses, she plays mom to her fraternal twins. For more on Nat, visit our Media page.

Charissa Lewis, community manager

‘Life is in session.’ There have been so many events that have happened in Charissa’s life that have led her down a completely unexpected path. Starting with 12 weeks of bedrest, her twins have taught her that she can plan all she wants, but life will happen.

As a founding member of Twiniversity, Charissa discovered Twiniversity on Facebook when she was looking for a way to connect with other mother’s of multiples on a flexible schedule because she was so busy juggling working full time as a Chemist while raising toddler twins.

She has watched our group grow from infancy and she is constantly impressed by Natalie and the fantastic group of MoMs that are part of Twiniversity. She has found support and become a part of a community that truly understands what a day in the life of a twin mom is like. ”Twiniversity is such a great resource and I am excited to become a more active part of it.” Charissa adds.

Charissa Lewis is a mother of three children, her twin daughters, Melanie and Sarah; and son Kyle, who live in Henderson, NV. Charissa holds a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from UCSB; and is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Chemistry with a focus on Regulatory Affairs.

Tracy Beecham, local Twiniversity ambassador and special projects coordinator

Residing in Kempton, PA; I am a newly single Mom to daughters Madelyn and Camryn, and identical twin sons, Robbie and Ryan. She was very content, happy, and done with two children. Thankfully, she ended up with four. Tracy says “Life without the twins would be too normal, and relatively quiet.”
I am a co-founder of Moms of Multiples of the Lehigh Valley (MMLV), a new local twin parenting group who celebrated their one year anniversary in October 2011. MMLV is dedicated to providing a positive environment for local parents of multiples to interact and support one another. After spending countless hours on Twiniversity’s site, she knew there was a great need for that amazing support and advice in my area and will be launching local Twiniversity classes in early 2012.

Frankie Howley, contributing writer

‘Write what you know and keep reading.’ This is the inspiring advice that Frankie Howley has carried with her from the very start of her writing career. After hearing the news of her expectant twins; that is exactly what she did. She kept a journal. And she started thumbing through the Spring 2010 issue of Twins Magazine. Turning the page, there she was…Natalie Diaz, founder of Twiniversity.com, the fastest growing online community for parents of multiples. Intrigued by this wonderful idea and New York City mama with her then five-year-old boy/girl twins; Frankie signed up as a new member of Twiniversity.com in May 2010 and the rest, as they say, is history.

Frankie Howley is a mother of three children, her son, Zachary; and twin daughters, Jasmine and June, who live in St. Petersburg, FL. With a bachelor’s degree in Journalism from USF, St. Petersburg; Frankie is a former staff writer/editorial assistant for the St. Petersburg Times; and has written several freelance articles for both ParentGuide Magazine and CitiLife Magazine.
