MM: When did you start volunteering at CAMP Rehoboth?
DQ: Last year for Women’s FEST. Not sure if I volunteered or if my wife volunteered me; we still debate that. But I’m here now and loving it!
MM: Favorite season here at the beach and why?
DQ: Definitely fall. When the crowds are gone, the leaves are turning, and the air is crisp.
MM: Name a childhood mentor or someone who influenced you while growing up.
DQ: I think I get my creativity from my father; he was a great influence on me growing up and we did a lot of projects together. I’m a self-taught graphic artist…I learned everything I know on the job after leaving dental hygiene (sorry Dad) at the age of 40. And this was BEFORE computers were a business staple.
MM: Night owl or early riser and why?
DQ: Night owl. No one should see me before my morning coffee—it’s not pretty.
MM: Favorite holiday and why?
DQ: Hanukkah. Because I get to teach my shiksa wife all the Hebrew prayers. Took her three years but she does them better than I do, now.
MM: How long have you been coming to Rehoboth?
DQ: I probably first came to Rehoboth in 1988; never dreamed I’d be living here full-time. I’ll never forget that first time because I got locked out of my hotel room.
MM: What are you most thankful for?
DQ: My loving wife, Kelly, who also volunteers and acts with CAMP Rehoboth Theatre. She’s a hoot to watch on stage. ▼
