Interests include digital photography, playing the trumpet, watching movies and plays, sports, and traveling with his wife. One fact about him that not a lot of people know is that he completed professional training for driving school buses, 2 ½ and 5-ton trucks, high-speed performance cars, and motorcycles. He is licensed for inland waterways boating and spent one awesome morning flying a plane under the watchful care of his brother-in-law, who is a flight trainer. He loves to drive—anything!
