I’m someone who believes life’s best moments are meant to be shared. My purpose in life is simple: take care of people and enjoy every second of it. Whether it’s supporting friends and family or helping teammates grow into the best versions of themselves, I’m all about connection, growth, and making a positive impact wherever I can.

A big inspiration for me is the story of Chris McCandless—whose journey into the wild ended with the powerful realization that “happiness is only real when shared.” That message stuck with me, and it’s a big reason why I value time with good company and meaningful experiences. I’m happiest outdoors—hiking, camping, skiing, surfing, fishing, or just grilling up something delicious. Nature helps me stay grounded, energized, and ready for whatever comes next.

Outside of my love for the outdoors, I bring that same spirit of adventure and drive into my work. I’m always looking to level up—whether it’s knocking strokes off my golf game or tackling new challenges at work. What I love most about working at MCHG is the genuine care people have for each other, no matter the role. I’m also incredibly grateful for my wife, family, cat, and close friends—my crew for all of life’s adventures.
