Tell us about your life outside of work (family/pets/sports/activities/interests/hobbies)
I have 2 awesome kids (Bryce and Rylie) and a beautiful wife (Amanda). We live in Allendale and enjoy summer sports with the kids and going to our home away from home at Sandy Pines. My son and I love to golf and play baseball.
What is your favorite part of working at the firm?
As cheesy as it may sound — the people are great. Even the people that I don’t get a chance to interact with a lot are still really friendly when I do see them. Its always about the people. The flexibility is great also.
