About Addison
Biography
Tracy and I enjoy helping people get through difficult situations by proactivly working to find positive solutions. Whether this be at the office, in the community, or at home while raising our 2 children, we try and get together all of the facts and circumstances so that intelligent and informed solutions can be made.
When not at work, our family enjoys an active lifestyle. On any given weekend you might find us in the garden, paddling the local rivers, running an obstacle race, or at the arena supporting our favorite minor-league hockey team. Go South Carolina Stingrays.
