Q: What do you like most about working at Fearing’s?
A: The constant change of my day to day tasks, from working with my internal teams to meeting with new and existing customers.

Q: Do you have a hidden talent?
A: I wouldn’t call it a hidden talent, but I have been a guitarist/songwriter/guitar teacher going on 30 years. The key is to remember to have fun. Hidden talents would be skateboarding and surfing, but a work in progress.

Q: Who is/was the most influential person in your life?
A: I don’t have just one, based on the point of influence we are talking about. It starts with my parents, brother, grandparents, and begins to expand based on individuals I have met along the way in my life. Life experience is a key teacher, the good, the bad and the ugly. I am blessed to still have both of my parents, brother, a partner that continues to push me to be the best version of myself daily, and a great group of friends I respect, seek guidance from and laugh with.

A: Fall – Badger Football Saturdays, crisp cool mornings, Saturday at the 70’s with a fresh cup of black coffee and the car window down have been long-time favorites of mine.
