Deborah and Daniel met while living in New York City, where they are both from, 25 years ago. Deborah attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, while Daniel attended Hofstra University. They moved down to Florida many years ago, where their sons, Daniel Jr. and Davin, were born. 

 

Daniel Jr and Davin are off at school, Daniel Jr at FSU and Davin at American Heritage, so Daniel and Deborah share their home with their 5-year-old goldendoodle, Brooklyn. But, to get everyone together in one place again, once a year, the family heads to Costa Rica to their vacation home to catch some sun and enjoy good food and activities.

 

“We like to work out together, travel together, spend holidays together, and eat dinner together whenever possible,” Deborah says. “The boys play golf and pickleball together.” 

 

Daniel is active in the Hawks community pickleball league and loves it! 

 

When the family moved here three years ago, they were welcomed with open arms. They have loved meeting new friends and the security Hawks has to offer. 

 

For those new, they say, “Welcome to Hawks, where you will always feel safe, no doubt meet some amazing people, have access to our top-notch gym and spa, pool, and sports courts, and enjoy neighborhood gatherings arranged by our hardworking staff!”
