Any hobbies people are surprised to hear you have?
Having two boys ages 5 & 8, all of my wife’s and my time is pretty much spent with their sports and other activities.  Which is the best way to spend my time.

Vacation spots you recommend?
Anywhere in Italy.

Most interesting company you have worked with?
Personally: RapidAdvance. When I joined we were a 15 person startup in a brand new industry, now we are over 200 people and a market leader.  What a long, strange trip it’s been.

Partnered with: Office Depot, we created a white label program for Office Depot and it was a fun experience launching a service that a national corporation had never offered to its clients.

Favorite dish to cook?
Linguini & Clam sauce

See any good concerts or entertainment events lately?
I’m a big fan of all kinds of music, so anytime I can get to a concert I try and go.  One of the best was a few years ago for my birthday my wife took a bunch of us to a Steve Miller Band & Journey co-headline concert.
