Video games allows me to escape reality for a moment, love BBQ/cooking for friends and family! No better feeling than watch others enjoy your food! Fishing, the thrill and excitement when you set that hook! Raising my daughters is a blessing for me and I love to watch them grow, fall down and get up and overcome their obstacles!

Im a team player learning this trait from playing sports and having two brothers. Im the right fit for this position and ready to earn my spot on you team.
