Personal Interests
Dogs – My golden retriever, Cavell, is a service-dog drop out. Cavell was raised by my colleague, Construx Senior Fellow Earl Beede.
Motorcycling – I enjoy road trips around the Pacific Northwest. This summer I mostly rode a Ducati Super Sport and a Gold Wing. I seem to trade motorcycles often. I’ve enjoyed riding Harley’s and have had a V-Rod and a Soft tail.
Home Improvement – I get a lot of satisfaction out of home improvement projects. I built my own home theater room.
Car Wax – I was debating with a friend whether cleaning something could ever be fun, and I realized I actually spend an inordinate amount of time cleaning–but when you do it to your car it’s called detailing! I like all aspects of detailing, and I especially enjoy car wax. At one point I had my car divided in 6 different test panels for different kinds of wax. Does that surprise anyone? Probably not.
Community Service – I’m on the board of my local Rotary club. I also served on my local school board for six years.
