Interests

  • My wife and I are blessed with our two daughters Emma (13) and Lauren (11), and our son, DJ (2). We also love our dog - Daisy and cat - Teddy Steve.
  • I enjoy golf and try to get out as much as I can. It’s a bit tougher these days with the girls’ activities and chasing a toddler!
  • My family and I love to get to our cabin in Wisconsin and enjoy the outdoors all year long. We also love to get away to a warmer climate in the winter.
  • I enjoy giving clients hope for achieving their long-term goals!
