| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | My most memorable childhood experiences were going to the zoo. This sparked my love of animals and fascination for the natural world. It was fun to learn new things about animals and to explore more about them. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I identify the most with my father. He is a kindhearted person who wants to do the best he can while also having a strong sense of humor. He has a strong work ethic which I try to emulate in my career. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | I value traits of individuals that want to have fun and enjoy themselves and who have a good sense of humor and a relaxed approach to life. I feel like having humor and relaxation in life will help to handle stress in the world. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | I can't remember an exact moment, but it seems like every day with my wife seems to top every other funniest moment. My wife and I love to joke around do silly antics and quote the funniest things we can think of. We have our own inside jokes that we quote on the regular. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I would love to travel to Singapore. Singapore has a close connection with nature and beautiful architecture. They have several world-renowned zoos that are each distinctly unique. Because of its location, Singapore has many diverse cultures bringing together several Asian, south Asian, and Arab cuisines making it a food paradise. The beautiful connections between the modern and natural world make it a wonderful place that I hopefully will visit very soon. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would like to pass on to them a love of nature, understanding of others, a sense of humor, and the ability to handle the real world. I think it’s important to teach them to understand why life can be stressful and how to cope with problems in a healthy way. If I were to have children, I would want to raise them to be a good part of society. |
