Where do you see yourself in 20 years, career wise? “Without a doubt I will be doing something that allows me to lead in a way that can help influence others in a positive way and help develop other leaders.”  

What is the best advice you can give regarding work/life balance? “Turn off the phone on the weekend.  I know that I push hard during the workweek and I try and carry that same energy and focus into the weekend with my family.”

What would most people be surprised to learn about you? “I initially met my wife in England.  A year later we met again on top of Pikes Peak in Colorado.  A year later, she moved to Denver to attend graduate school at the same school I just graduated from. The rest is history.”

If you had $1 million to give, what causes would you support?
“One cause that is poorly addressed in NWA is homelessness.  It is amazing how little funding and services are provided for those in our area that are without shelter or temporarily without shelter.”
