Happy Father’s Day to my Dad, Dr. Mark J. Sullivan, Doctor of Chemistry and father to myself and Caroline Sullivan. Over the years, my dad has proven himself as a socialite though his love for epic socialite activities such as sailing and skiing.  I have to say, my dad is truly the sailing enthusiast of the family.  Though I never took to sailing or the sciences like my father, my socialite aspirations along with the desire to spend more time with my Dad who resides hours away in Boston have drawn me closer to the sport.  Here he is pictured right sailing on the Boston Harbor.

With my dad at the helm, I participated in socialite activities such as skiing and boating from a young age.  I will never forget the joy of going down my first slope of powder soft snow with my dad on Loon Mountain at the age of seven.  I have been a natural skier ever since.  Every summer we explore our outdoorsy side at the scenic Lake Pemaquid Campground in Damariscotta, ME.  Yes, even aspiring NYC socialites can be outdoorsy from time to time, especially if there are awesome outlets nearby in Freeport, ME.  I am so thankful for all of the opportunities my father has given me growing up and am so grateful for all of the support he has given me in move to New York.  Happy Father’s Day to my Socialite Dad!
