Neighborhood Chef, Nazareth is the second in a series meshing home, travel and cuisine. The first, which featured Bethlehem, won an Emmy nomination. "My husband, Ken, and I love to explore interesting places and food," Trionfo says. "The concept for this series is Your Neighborhood, Your Home, Your Friends, And Our Chef. The blend of home, travel and cuisine is a magic combination."
The alchemy began at the YMCA, where Trionfo met Liberatore, who often invited her and other exercisers to his home for impromptu cooking demonstrations and lunch. Giuliano's warm personality, sense of humor and zest for teaching won Trionfo over, and she realized she had found the perfect host for her series.
In addition to Neighborhood Chef, Trionfo produces corporate and marketing videos also commercials for businesses and organizations. Since graduating from Northampton Community College's radio and TV program, Trionfo has built a roster of clients, including the Martin Guitar and Company, Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Center,
Northampton Community College and Children's Home of Easton,
