When I am not at work I like to surround myself with my family and friends. In the warmer months you will find me at the farmers market, or on a golf course, or at a lake. I also enjoy a nice patio bar every once in a while. In the fall it’s all football! GO HAWKS! In the winter I stay in and do a lot of cooking and meal prepping for friends and family.

Personal Highlights
During the very rare moments I’m not working I’m spending time with friends and family and building a life with my soon to be wife Aubrey, I’m so glad I found a great company to work for and that gave me a chance to show what I have to offer. I promise to not let HOA down, and promise to cook some damn good food!
