Eddie Fischer was raised in a Polish-Irish middle class town of Sayreville, New Jersey, where he took his first drink at 14 years old and began a long love affair with alcohol and bars. In 2000, Eddie moved to Scottsdale, Arizona and over 8 years built a 50 million dollar mortgage business and a cocaine addiction. In 2005, Eddie entered treatment at The Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, California. He gratefully found freedom on April 13, 2006 and began a journey, building a strong foundation of recovery. In 2008 after starting his dream business, he lost everything in the economic downturn. While a difficult time, a calling led him to serve others during their most critical times and created a non profit ministry called Cross Stitched. 2018 brought Eddie and his beautiful, courageous wife of 16 years Michelle to Texas, to serve 3 years as an Adolescent Boys Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center in Fort Worth, Texas. Eddie joined team Casa Colina Treatment in March 2021 as National Director of Community Outreach and was promoted in January 2022 as Chief Marketing Officer.
