What is the best advice you’ve ever received?
Find something you’re good at. Then apply the thousands of hours to become great at it. Because once you’re great at something, you will become passionate about whatever it is.
Where would we find you on a typical Saturday/Sunday?
I can often be found doing some type of outdoor activity. I enjoy going for runs, walking around a park, riding my bike on local trails, and playing pickleball. I also often go on hikes in East Fork State Park, and I try to go on a couple backpacking trips each year.
What is something people might be surprised to learn about you?
I am interested in reading fantasy books. My interest started prior to adolescence from reading the Icewind Dale Trilogy and the Redwall series. I have continued to read fantasy books ever since, which includes series such as The Lord of the Rings, A Song of Ice and Fire (a.k.a. Game of Thrones), The Wheel of Time, The Stormlight Archive, The First Law, The Broken Empire, and more.
