Activates and Leisure Time

When not in the office I am an avid reader, writer and a morning gym rat. I have a passion for finding balance and harmony in my life. My amazing kids and beautiful fiancée give me purpose and my purposes give me that vitality that hopefully someday my imprints will help leave this world a better place than I found it. References
