She named them JDT Medical Rehab and JDT Villa in honor of her parents, Jerry and Dolores Turco. In 2012, she transformed the company into a portfolio of high quality commercial real estate, located across the US, which is now, being managed by her two sons, Evin Feliciano (CFO) and Cary Feliciano (COO), With over 100 years of combined expertise, this powerhouse family business is building a legacy of innovation and now expanding into global humanitarian efforts.
