Los Angeles Express of the USFL. She currently resides in Friday Harbor,

WWF/WWE career
A former performer for the Glorious Ladies of
Wrestling (GLOW) promotion, Moretti was originally brought into the WWF (now WWE)
as a manager for D-lo Brown and Mark Henry. Her ring name, Ivory, was apparently
derived from the fact that she was a caucasian managing two African American
wrestlers - a reference to the song "Ebony and Ivory", which was sung by Paul
McCartney and Stevie Wonder. She was their manager for a short time before
quietly transitioning to other storylines, all the while retaining the name
Ivory.
Moretti was a heel for most of her wrestling
career, attacking many popular female performers in various storylines.
Eventually she was "captured" by the conservative wrestling faction Right to
Censor and "reprogrammed" to further the group's anti-WWF message. During her
time with Right to Censor, her ring attire was changed to be less suggestive -
wearing the formal black and white suits of the rest of the faction's members,
as well as a long skirt. After the faction disbanded, she eventually joined The
Alliance, despite never having worked for WCW or ECW.
Though still employed by WWE, her in-ring role has
been significantly decreased and Moretti has primarily been used as a
commentator on various WWE programs. Due to her new role in WWE, Moretti is free
to work on the independent circuit.
