Interests

  • In my free time I am with my wife and kids - and as you know, with kids there is no free time!
  • I enjoy coaching my kid's soccer team, reading, University of Alabama sports, and Chicago Cubs baseball.
  • My hobbies include golf and cooking (surprisingly) - I have become pretty good at smoking ribs, deep frying turkeys, and low country boils (shrimp and crawfish). I also enjoy cooking meals as well; my grandfather owned a restaurant for many years and taught me how to cook.
