7. Tell us about your family. My wife Amy (we got married on the spring break of our sophomore year at 20) had our first child six years later. Austin, our oldest, is now 13 and plays soccer, has just formed an all-region band, is a member of the National Junior Honor Society, and has just formed the pole vault team. Anderson, our middle son, is 11 years old and an outstanding soccer and lacrosse player who loves to draw and create things. Alec, our youngest 9 year old, is usually the focus and has just started lacrosse. We also have a dog named Abby who is an Aussiedoodle.

8. How often do you pick up your phone each day? I use my phone for work and speak to our area sales managers and customers all the time. At home I try to stay away from it, but admittedly I pick it up and watch it more than I should.

9. What’s your biggest hassle with pets? I’m pretty relaxed, but at work I get angry about laziness and poor communication. I also don’t like fuzzy things. I don’t want to touch her and I don’t want her around me. I also hate Q-tips and don’t have wax removed near my ears.

10. What do you like about the Owasso / Collinsville region? It’s big enough to have most things in the city but still small enough not to feel like you’re in the big city. It’s also close enough to Tulsa that you can get there in a reasonable time if you want big city experiences.
