Residing conveniently between the mountains and the coast has always appealed to Neil. The natural beauty and variety of things to do and places to visit in North Carolina mean there are always adventures to be found. Traveling to small towns across the state for day trips or longer adventures is something Neil likes to do when he has the time. After graduating from UNCG with a degree in Broadcasting, Neil spend almost 30 years working in local radio with duties ranging from on-air, commercial production, promotions, and marketing. After leaving radio, he spent several years delivering exemplary customer service with Apple. Working with customers in a high-paced atmosphere, educating novice and advanced customers on technology use was always an exciting experience."}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32845"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32845\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32905,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32845\/revisions\/32905"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32855"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carolinadigitalphone.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
