Who is your role model?
I have always admired the inspiring speeches and leadership qualities of former President, John F. Kennedy.

What was your childhood dream?
I wanted to be an architect or a construction worker.

If you could go back in time, what advice would you give your college self? 
I would tell myself to take some time to enjoy and appreciate the experience.

People would be surprised to know that I…
am an extremely picky eater (I can hear some snickers from those who know me).

What was your first job?
My first job was working at a concession stand and maintaining tennis courts at a public park/playground.  

Do you have a “motto”? (spoken or unspoken)
Admittedly, I stole this from Cosmo Kramer…”Without rules, there’s chaos!”

When you have an hour of free time, what do you like to do? 
Whenever I have free time, I will always default to a History Channel documentary. 

Do you have advice for young professionals?
Work hard, care about your job, and take pride in your results.
