Today we’d like to introduce you to Lyndee Simoneaux.
Hi Lyndee, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
I met my now husband at the College of Charleston and moved to Bluffton about 27 years ago. We got married and started the Sippin’ Cow Cafe. We sold the restaurant when our daughter was 6 months old. I took a few years off to be a mom and had our second child. Later my husband and I took over his family business Scotts Meat Market. Once he got up and running, I went to work at Affordable Healthcare for 10 years. I decided I was ready for a challenge and joined the Town of Bluffton as the Special Events Manager almost 3 years ago. I have loved being a part of this unique over many years and am blessed to call Bluffton my home.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Learning to juggle a family and a career is always challenging because I want to be the best at both.
Thanks for sharing that. So, you could tell us a bit more about your business.
