“I enjoy traveling with my family. I had the opportunity in the recent past to go scuba diving in Cozumel with my (nearly 80-year-old) mother and my boys. Seeing this great lady scuba diving along a huge reef wall with her grandkids is something none of us will ever forget! I am also a big fan of shooting sports.”
Fun Fact:“My first job was as a snow ski technician at The Slope in Wichita. Years later, one of my favorite experiences was skiing on the back side of Vail Pass by snowcat with two of my sons. The company, the snowcat experience, the views and the amazing powder are quite memorable!”
