Three things people may not know about me:

  • I was an exchange student to Brazil in college for a year. Although as the years pass my skills are getting rustier, I do still speak Portuguese.
  • My car in high school was a green 1966 Studebaker which had been my great grandma’s. It was not exactly a cool car, but was very memorable!
  • My wife and I like to go out occasionally to swing and salsa dance.
