I love the outdoors, traveling, mountain biking, running, and public events (i.e. concerts, fairs, street markets). I'm a father of four, deeply focused on helping my kids achieve their dreams, a person of deep conviction in my faith, and I'm very committed to friendships, reunions and meeting new people. I am a big believer in the power of casual connections to surface meaningful opportunities.
I really like finding/creating productivity hacks.
