"You don't have a lot of envy, you don't have a lot of resentment, you don't overspend your income, you stay cheerful in spite of your troubles, you deal with reliable people and you do what you're supposed to do. All these simple rules work so well to make your life better" - Charlie Munger
Outside of life at work, I'm a father to 2 curious and energetic boys, husband to the woman of my dreams, and rescuer of 2 cats and 2 dogs. I've spent my life around the water and love fishing, boating, and surfing. On the weekends you might find our family enjoying some time outside or cruising our local waters. Please visit me on LinkedIn and feel free to connect with me there.
In my free time I enjoy exploring the skies with my drone, finding new places to photograph, and embarking on culinary adventures in the kitchen. I'm a dog mom to two rowdy rescues and I love volunteering at the Humane Society whenever I get the chance.
