Tell me a little more about what you do for a living and how that came about?
I have been a headhunter for 15 years. I first worked for a staffing company in the city for 5 1/2 years, and when I moved out east there weren’t any business-focused recruiters in the Hamptons. So I opened my own little company and recruit everything locally from Bookkeepers to Architects, Store Managers to Interior Designers, Administrative Assistants to Project Managers – you name it!

Go to Sunset Beach on Shelter Island and you’ll find plenty of other foreigners….and love it!
