I AM...

• A father to a boy and a girl who will both be graduating from college soon
• A former county criminal prosecutor, who moved into private practice in 2003
• A first-generation college graduate
• A Roman Catholic
• A football fan who loves the Kansas City Chiefs and the Missouri Tigers
• A southern hippie—think Willie, Waylon, and Jerry Jeff
• Obsessed with music and am well-versed in Country and ‘80s Pop/Rock. My favorite artist is Waylon Jennings.
• A sailor and a skier. I enjoy skiing Steamboat Springs Mountain and own a Catalina 320 sailboat.

• A person who has a hard time saying no
