Business and Boats

Steven Komorowski, a U.S. Navy veteran from North Jersey, and his wife Sonya, originally from western North Carolina, met when Komorowski was a corpsman stationed at Camp Lejune. They fell in love and married, and after many moves, landed in New York, where Sonya had always wanted to work.

At the beginning of the pandemic, they made the decision to leave New York and began exploring towns on the train line along the coast. They found our city to be perfect for them. “Milford was the first town that was not like New York,” says Komorowski. “We liked the laid-back beachy vibe and decided to move here.”

“Milford is a nice, happy medium—a normal town that has everything,” he continues. “We are big boaters, so Milford is perfect for us. We have our boat and belong to the yacht club. We love the Milford Arts Center, and the beaches are awesome.”

Komorowski, who had been working as a respiratory therapist in New York, had always had an interest in fitness, and had previously taught Phys-ed at a Montessori school. Once settled in Milford, he founded a personal training studio, Fit Forever, located at 7 River Street. Sonya rides the train for her commute to New York. The couple are often out and about, exploring and learning all about everything Milford has to offer!
