Outside of work, I‘m a proud father and husband. And as a self-proclaimed beer and coffee aficionado, I prefer Russian Imperial Stouts, and the distinct tastes of Brasil/Costa Rica Arabica blends for my coffee.

In my spare time, I’m an avid Dungeons and Dragons player. Only 3rd edition, though, because the newer versions suck (did I say that I was pedantic yet?).

Friends often label me as social, slightly pedantic, and suitably lazy.
