Todd was the youngest of four
children born into a Greek-Italian / German-English family. He was born in
Minnesota, but spent his boyhood years in a
beautiful community in New Jersey
outside of New York
City. He walked to school, canoed
in the town’s lakes and canals, and played sports such as
lacrosse in middle school, high-school football, and
high-school baseball. He also went skiing every week with
his school ski
club. He worked in a deli for awhile during high school.
He decided to go to an out-of-state school, in warm, sunny
Georgia
to study architecture.
Todd’s family resides in northern and
southern New Jersey
as well as in Maryland, near Washington, DC.
His sister has 5 children. One of his brothers has 2 children
and his other brother has one child. Family gatherings are
chaotic, but are a full of love and excitement. Todd has a very
close family, although separated by some distance.
