Brian moved to Middletown with his wife in 2007 after being sworn in as an Assistant Prosecutor with the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office. After outgrowing their starter home, Brian and his wife moved to Lincroft where they now raise their three children. Brian's commitment to support Lincroft as a community extends well beyond his frequent attendance at Middletown South High School sporting events. Although Brian left the prosecutor's office to join the private sector, his love for the area kept him in Lincroft. He now focuses his practice of law on personal inury, which includes representing plaintiff's involved in catastrophic accidents. Brian relishes the opportunity of being able to provide insight to the LVGA on ways to continue to make Lincroft safer.

Abe was born and raised in Monmouth County. He moved to Lincroft when he married his wife, Linda, 32 years ago. They own and operate A Child’s Place School, a private school for young children located on West Front Street in Lincroft. He is a partner in Guttenplan’s Frozen Dough, a bread manufacturing company in North Middletown. He is a former President of Hockey in Middletown which supports the ice hockey programs for Middletown North and South. Abe is a Trustee on the Board of Lunch Break, a non-profit organization serving Monmouth and Ocean Counties. He joined the LVGA when Brookdale Community College planned to align the Phalanx Road exit with Hickory Lane. The traffic impact on the ‘tree streets’ would have been devastating. As a member of the LVGA, Abe and others met with Monmouth County officials and they were successful in persuading Brookdale to alter their plans. He eventually became a Director and President. Abe is extremely proud of The LVGA’s many accomplishments, especially the retention of the park as an open space and the Route 520 Roundabout at the north entrance of Brookdale. He believes that what sets the LVGA apart from other community organizations is the amazing dedication, commitment, and impact of its directors and the outstanding support of its membership.
