PERSONAL

I love learning, challenges and expanding my horizons. I’ve been married for nearly two decades and have two boys, one in middle school and one in elementary. My passions include piloting sports cars and karts in club level races and I can’t live happily without a Porsche as my daily driver. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay area, and was fortunate to have grown up around sailboats, racing and cruising my way across some 4,000 miles of bays, lakes and oceans.
