Meet the Business Owner
Rod S.
Business Owner
As a young child, Mr. Sterling had a curious nature. His first few decades were filled with explorations of science, human anatomy and behavior, mythology and various arcane religious studies, as well as the occasional (read: FREQUENT) wrestling match with the Green Fairy (which his brother Matt turned him onto one swank Los Angeles evening, amdist the porn stars, Hunter S. Thompson re-enactments and electric flyswatters of that particular affair). More recently, Mr. Sterling amassed a strange and ever growing collection of uniquities from his travels around this big blue marble we call home. Collecting eventually became an overflowing obsession. What to do, what to do… throw it all out and end this lunacy, or start a business? After transacting with both Loved To Death in San Francisco and Obscura in New York, Mr. Sterling saw a need to fill the niche for the obscure in NC. Shortly thereafter, The Little Leviathan came into being one early November weekend in 2012.
