    On 10/23, I voted in person at my local voting venue and brought my 8 year old son along.  It was an awesome experience for him and a proud moment for this dad!

    Love giving back to the community.  I am very active within the sports community.  I coach a softball team, sit on the board of a non-profit as secretary and sit on the board of another non-profit as president.  Giving back fills my cup!
