Tell us a little about yourself and how you came to Fripp Island. I grew up in South Jersey. Went to college for music at Gardner Webb University Worked as an Electrical Supervisor for many contractors such as Lockheed Martin, Raytheon Nuclear, Bechtel, Critical Path Resources, to name a few. Most of my work focused in the Nuclear Field. I came to Fripp purely by accident. My intent was to retire and open a “Word Cafe Live” style restaurant or pub in the Beaufort County area. My family lives in the Hilton Head / Bluffton area. When I would visit my family, I was convinced I would retire there, however, when I read a listing for rent add on Fripp, I was hooked! What was your favorite childhood book? My favorite childhood books were Aesops Fables and Robinson Crusoe.
