On a personal note,

I currently reside in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan with my beautiful wife and two kids who are the inspiration for me every day.

I love to draw and play golf. You can often find me holding a Bic pen which I prefer as the best tool for business, drawing, writing, and sand sculpting.
