About Me
Personal Life:
I am happily married to my amazing wife, and together we have one son with another on the way—soon to be a family of four with two under two! I enjoy staying active and have recently taken up Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), which I find both mentally and physically rewarding. Beyond BJJ, I love working out, hiking, fishing, and spending time outdoors. One of my greatest joys is exploring nature with my wife and son, watching him learn and grow with every new experience.
