Get to Know

What is your favorite place you’ve traveled to?

Egypt and Jordan are my favorite places I've traveled because few destinations offer the opportunity to experience so much history in such a tangible way. Exploring the Pyramids of Giza, the temples of Luxor, Petra, and Wadi Rum gave me a deeper appreciation for the ingenuity, engineering, and cultures that shaped some of the world's earliest civilizations.

Dogs, cats, both, or neither?

Dogs—no cats allowed! While I don't have a dog of my own, I'm the proud uncle to my brother's two dogs, Archie and Ziggy, and they're always keeping life entertaining.

One person in history, dead or alive that you would want to sit with on a plane to California?

Christopher Lee. Beyond his legendary acting career and unmistakable voice, he served in the Royal Air Force during World War II, spoke several languages, recorded heavy metal albums in his 80s, and lived a life full of incredible experiences—I can't imagine a more fascinating person to spend a cross-country flight hearing stories from.

You’re forced to carry around a boombox for the rest of your life and you can only play one song. What song do you pick?

Any song by Mumford & Sons. Their music combines thoughtful storytelling, powerful instrumentals, and timeless energy, making it the kind of soundtrack I could happily listen to for the rest of my life.
