6.  What are some of your hobbies and interests?

           I enjoy traveling to historical places, top food places, hiking, fly fishing and spending time in the mountains with family.  As an accountant, I love to count my travels (Yes, I was the sesame street's "The Count" for one Halloween).  I  have been to all 30 major league baseball stadiums, 112 minor league/college ballparks, 12 football stadiums, 29 American President gravesites, 24 Revolutionary & Civil War battlefields and 129 national parks & historical sites.

7.  Are there any other interesting tidbits you want to share about yourself?

Well I enjoy visiting famous places, the best traveling experiences come when you visit with family and friends.  I was blessed to spend a month in Ukraine as part of Lee University’s cross cultural experience, with the current war conditions in Ukraine it makes it more personal and appreciative of my family, friends, the volunteers and workers we have in our Sunburst community.
