She is a dedicated grade school teacher, and watching her impact on students is a constant inspiration. She’s truly a "rock star" when we run into former students who still look up to her years later. We are also the proud parents of two successful (personally and professionally), compassionate children and the very proud grandparents of six. Nothing beats the energy of a house full of grandkids during a weekend stayover.When I’m not working, I stay active by maintaining our yard and pool, hitting the gym, or walking our Golden Retriever. I’m also a hobbyist at heart (Maybe too much sometimes?). I manage several aquariums and enjoy "unwinding" with home automation projects or spinning up Docker containers just for the fun of it.Family traditions are my anchor, whether it's our annual extended family trip to Ludington State Park or my yearly fishing trip to remote Canada with my father, brothers, and cousins.
