A: Working with so many diverse groups and companies (ourselves included) and being able to help teams realize their potential and drive personal growth as well as value for the companies and customers they serve. (And having fun while doing it!)
Q: What is one piece of info that people would be surprised to find out about you?
A: That I am the Supreme Ruler of the Universe...it was a unanimous vote by a group of my peers back in college....and I have just chosen not to invoke my powers to this day.
This was a tough one, I am an open book and there is not much that would surprise people.
Q: What is your version of a perfect Sunday?
A: Too many to list.....but a few are:
Watching the morning sunrise across the bow of my canoe in the summer, or my ice fishing sled in the winter on one of the many reservoirs in Colorado.
Or
going for a nice long motorcycle ride with my wife in the mountains.
Q: What is the farthest you have traveled and why?
A: I've been to England, Finland, Germany, Vietnam, China..... Farthest is likely Ho Chi Minh City - Vietnam (maybe 8400 miles as the crow flies). Visited VM as part of my Executive MBA program at Univ of Denver back in 2006. We had a 2-week business trip where we visited businesses in Vietnam and Beijing and chatted about everything from HR issues to strategy to environmental regulations. The food in Vietnam WAS AWESOME and I would go back in a heartbeat....the people, culture, food, and country were absolutely wonderful.
Q: How long have you lived in Colorado and what do you like most about living here?
A: We have lived in Colorado since 2003 - so going on 16 years (lived in Ohio before that). I love the diversity of opportunities for being outdoors year round. Snowshoeing, ice fishing, camping, canoeing, fly fishing, motorcycle riding, hunting...and 300 days of sun! There is not a time of the year where I don't have an opportunity to be outside in the wild.
