Hobbies
Travel
When I find a quiet moment, my instinct is to set off on a new adventure. Travel has a way of captivating me like nothing else. I’ve been lucky enough to visit over 40 countries across six continents, each leaving a mark on me. Some of my favorite spots that stand out are Colombo, Mendoza, Bali, Santiago, Medellin, and San Sebastian. For me, no education compares to what you learn from exploring the world. The personal growth that comes from navigating new places, figuring out how to communicate despite language barriers, and wandering unfamiliar streets with spotty cell reception—those are the moments that make travel not only exciting but truly meaningful.
Outdoor Adventures
Nature is my ultimate source of grounding. Whether I’m pushing myself through a fitness challenge or enjoying peaceful moments in the mountains, being outdoors offers a much-needed escape from the everyday pressures of building a career. Moving to Colorado in 2018 was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made—it changed my life in countless ways. When challenges feel overwhelming, my go-to remedy is simple: I turn off my phone, hop in the car for a spontaneous drive into the mountains, and head out on a hike. These moments remind me that the truest joys in life are often found in its simplest treasures.

Spending Time With Family
Arriving at DTW and heading to West Bloomfield, Michigan, always fills me with a deep sense of joy. It’s where I reunite with my family: my parents, brother, sister-in-law, and my adorable niece. My parents hold a special place in my heart—my mom’s warmth and boundless affection leave a lasting impression on everyone she meets, and my dad and I share an unbreakable bond through our shared love for travel and the mountains.
My brother and I grew up bonding over our passion for hockey, and watching him step into fatherhood has been incredibly inspiring. He’s embraced the role with such grace, and I’m constantly amazed at the father he’s become.
Together, we’re a close-knit family, built on love, shared experiences, and unwavering support—the foundation of who I am today.
