Donna

Donna Gelber, Managing Partner

“Miss Donna” is a proud mother of five, a New York Giants fan (sometimes painfully so), an 80’s music lover, and a gymnastics enthusiast.

Her passion for gymnastics began as she watched her youngest daughter become a competitive gymnast. Now she finds herself fortunate enough to be with CAVU Trampoline and Tumbling.

Before spending 20 years dedicated to raising a family, she was an Administrative Assistant to the President of the largest construction company on the East Coast at the time.  Donna was also a Receptionist who was quickly promoted to Outside Sales Representative at a computer hardware company. In addition, she spent time as a Legal Secretary at a large corporate law firm.

Once her children grew up, Donna became an Independent Contractor offering administrative services to a broad client base in Manhattan and New Jersey.  She also co-owned a successful floral and event planning business.

Coach Roger and Miss Donna thank you and are truly grateful that you have put your trust in them.  They sincerely hope that you and your children are as happy to be here as we are to have you.
