PERSONAL DETAILS

I'm married with two children.  My son was born in 2017 and my daughter was born in 2019.  We also have two dogs (Gizmo and Gus).  As a family, we love to spend time with loved ones and stay active through various activities such as neighborhood walks, cycling, and travel.  I am an avid sports fan so I love watching my favorite Chicago teams: Da Bears, Blackhawks, and the Sox!
