Favorite Hobby? Filling a backpack with five days’ worth of gear and heading into the wilderness to find a mountain lake to raft and fish. “Not much can beat the feeling of fighting a brook trout after a long hike into the back country.”

Can’t Live Without: Music. “It has been a part of my entire life … it can spark so many memories and emotions and it really is something special for me.”
