Interests

Like many of us I love food and cooking. My wife is a talented interior designer and part of her creativity comes into the kitchen. We love to create new dishes and anticipate how different ingredients come together in a meal. We also love to entertain friends and family.

Another area that gives me incredible joy is my grandchildren. As a father of two boys, we are blessed to have 2 granddaughters now and love the ability to spoil them and give them back. Friends told us that having grandchildren was even better than having kids, and they were right. On October 4, 2015 we were blessed with our third--this one a boy. More fun ahead!
