When you are not working, what are you happiest doing?
Playing the drums in my band, golf, skiing, and wrenching on anything mechanical.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
From an early age, my parents knew I had some talent in the engineering field and always kind of pushed me that way. As I developed and grew, I also discovered that I really liked art and design.

I want to be remembered as a kind person who cherished courage, temperance, justice and wisdom.
