What was your first job? My first job was working for my dad’s construction business as a general crew member. Many hot summers spent on the least desirable projects as the “low man” on the totem pole taught me the value of hard work and instilled a strong work ethic in me.
What motivates you to give back to your community? My biggest motivator for giving back to the community is the connections I make. We have such a wonderful community, and you never know who you might meet. I love hearing others’ stories and learning about their careers and families.
What Superpower would you most love to have? If I could choose a superpower, I would love to time travel! As a bit of a history geek, I’d be thrilled to explore the past but also see what the future holds.
What would you like to leave behind as your legacy once you are gone? Boy, this is a heavy one! I would like to leave behind a legacy of kindness, compassion, and a positive impact on those around me. I hope to be remembered for the connections I made, the people I helped, and the love I shared with my family and friends.
