What do you like most about your job?

The outstanding crew we have working at our office makes my job fun and interesting every day.

Where were you born?

Portland, Oregon

Where was your best vacation ever?

It would probably have to be last summer when my wife and I, along with our 2 amaz- ing daughters (ages 10 and 7) started out of Denver in a rental car and crossed the Rockies, hiked on a snowy glacier in July, swam in natural hot springs, visited family in Salt Lake City, and then cruised down through Arches National Park and Moab, Utah, before crossing back across the Rock- ies on our way back to Denver.

What are your hobbies?

My hobbies include anything involving na- ture and the outdoors: hiking, biking, camp- ing, paddle boarding, traveling.

What do you plan to do when you re- tire?

I think it would be fun to load up an RV and spend a few months or more exploring parts of the country I have yet to visit; maybe an epic road trip from Florida to Alaska or something along those lines.
