ON POWER                              
People often underestimate the power of their mind.

I felt most powerful when I reached the summit of Long’s Peak in Colorado.

A true sign of power is something Alexander Graham Bell said: “What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists…and it becomes available only when you are in that state of mind in which you know EXACTLY what you want…and are fully determined not to quit until you get it.”  

ON MOTIVATION                      
I love to collaborate with and learn from people that share the same goal.

Career goal?
Growth through new experiences.

ON SUCCESS                            
When my experiences and accomplishments can be used for others’ personal development.

TYPICAL WEEKEND
My weekends are usually spent relaxing and catching up with my friends and family.  My favorite weekends are spent playing team tennis, going to the park with my dog, and listening to live music.

THE QUIZ

Hobbies outside of work?  
Discovering new music
