When I am not at work I am spending time with family and friends. I love to cook and entertain guests, but also enjoy visiting the plethora of establishments in the city. I spend the summers playing sand volleyball, relaxing at the lake and attending live music shows whenever possible!

Personal Highlights

When I am not at work, I am spending time with my family. I have a beautiful wife of 8 years and one son. They make everything possible for me, and they challenge me to be a better person every day. I wouldn’t be where I’m at today without their support. We like to cook out and relax on our patio, but most of all we enjoy traveling and seeing the world. I love to play golf as much as I can with my brothers and my dad. I enjoy playing several golf courses around the area!

Father of six healthy children. A loving partner and friend of many. During the election I had the honor of cooking for Donald Trump when he visited the Iowa
