The Treasure Island Gazelles
CATHERINE CHIADMI
“The Driver”for Le Rallye Aicha des Gazelles, 2016 - Navigator in 2013
I was born and raised in France and has lived in the United States since 1982. I am a citizen of both countries and speaks and writes French, English fluently, some Spanish and Arabic.
Married for 28 years, to Karim Chiadmi we have 3 children, ages 27, 21, 10.
I graduated from Valencia College in Orlando Florida with a BA in Business .
I am an entrepreneur and restaurateur . My husband Karim Chiadmi and I have built an award winning restaurant offering fine dining with a Moroccan / European flair in Treasure Island, Florida.
I have always dreamed of participating in the Rallye Aicha des Gazelles since its inception. My dream came through when I participated in The Rallye for the first time in 2013 as a Navigator. A month later I was diagnosed with an unexpended brain tumor and had to have surgery. I was brokenhearted. But with my strength and family support I am ready to take on the challenge for The 2016 Rallye Aicha des Gazelles.
I am very adventurous, not afraid of anything. Loves music and off course loves to drive
