Why I Love Goat Island –"Even with all the tourists coming and going this is still a very relaxing place to live, and I’ve got one of the most stressful jobs on the island! I think it’s a great place for my sons to grow up. We have a small town feel here, but you can learn a lot about the world from the people who visit and live here. Our citizens here are great. Eccentric and independent, but very good people."
Hobbies – "Anything that involves the water! Sailing, fishing, and scuba diving. My love for the water is a big reason I moved to Goat Island. Enjoying the water and my family take up most of my free time, but I also find a little time for reading."
