| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | I played several sports as a child, and one of my favorites was football. We had won the championship in our league two years in a row. It was a great sense of accomplishment from all the hard work and dedication we had put into training. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | My brother is very close to me because we have similar interests such as hunting, and other outdoor activities. We also share the same occupation, and he was the one who inspired me to pursue the career field, so that made us close as well. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | In an individual, honesty is a huge trait for me. A strong work ethic is also admirable. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | When I was 15, I went camping with one of my brothers in the sand dunes. I was riding a dirt bike that was a little too powerful for me at the time. As I was approaching the campground, I did a wheelie to show off but hit a rock and completely wiped out. I broke my helmet, and they put a piece of duct tape over where I broke the visor and wrote “Captain Dummy” on it and that was my name every time we went. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I’ve been all around the world to many different countries already, but from my experience, I would go all around Europe. I’ve been to a few places already there, but there is so much to do and see. It’s very easy to use public transportation to do things, and the architecture and history is amazing. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would like to share my hobbies and interests with them. I would also pass on to them to be respectful to others and for them to listen to their elders so they can learn from them and be more successful from their knowledge. |
