A Little More About Me
Over the past several years, I have ventured into many
different fields to continue challenging myself and my
abilities. From networking engineering to software testing,
web design to bookkeeping, daddy daycare during the pandemic
to opening our own business. The challenges of learning
something new is what drives my passion to try different
things.
My interests that keep me busy, first and foremost, are my
family, working on cars, DJ-ing, and golf. Definitely a golf
enthusiast! I love to travel with my family. The perfect
vacation for me is watching my kids play on the beach while I
relax and enjoy a cocktail. I've recently found interests in
trying different things on my Traeger.
