His family then moved to Independence, where Larry attended Independence High School before going to Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln, Nebraska where he received his bachelor’s degree. Larry then attended Michigan State University for his Master of Business Administration before moving to Huntington Beach, California. His career in real estate led him through Rhode Island and Oregon before positioning himself in South Carolina.
