Sally Peel

Sally grew up in the Midwest and after graduating from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln moved (for what she thought would be a few years) to Breckenridge, Colorado. A few years turned into many more than that and while she enjoyed snow sports of all types, the beach was calling her name. So Wilmington became her new home!

In addition to walks with Sofia her mixed-breed rescue dog, Sally loves to read and travel. Highlights include trips to Australia, Honduras and the United Kingdom. She also loves to volunteer her time with animal rescue groups.
