What do you most enjoy about your work?
Whether working solo or as part of a team, I enjoy building solutions from the ground up. I find it incredibly satisfying to foster a training idea from concept to implementation and see how it benefits those it was designed to help.
Hobbies
I love to travel with my wife and two daughters—anywhere there is a beach is a hit with us! I have a passion for music, movies, and graphic arts, am interested in computers and mathematics, and enjoy a good football game and gathering with family and friends.
