Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two kids. Most weekends, you can catch me at my son's soccer practice or playing at the park with my daughter. I have a strong sense of family and connection, which is one of the many reasons I decided to put down roots in the Fort Myers community. I am also a big football and basketball fan. Go Heat, Dolphins, and Canes!

The field is always changing, so it is important to continue learning and adjusting your practice.
