One of the biggest challenges I’ve faced professionally…I’m not sure, ask me tomorrow. Every day is its own challenge in this field.

Where did you grow up?
I grew up in picturesque Moab, Utah with my large family (I am 1 of 12). I enjoyed the hikes and scenery and still go back to visit when I am able.

If I could spend a day with someone famous, it would likely be Thomas Edison.

My favorite book is a youth fiction novel, The Summer of the Monkeys; my favorite movie The Hunt for Red October (Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin); my favorite song is probably Home (Phillip Phillips).

As a child what did you want to be when you grew up?
When I was young, I remember telling my parents that I wanted to become a few different things at different stages in my life, including attorney and inventor. I find now I’m very fortunate because I get to do work in both areas.

What do you like to do outside the office?
Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my family; I play basketball and help out with a youth group and a Boy Scout troop in Papillion.
