Experience
My wife has been very influential over the course of my career. I rely on her for insightful guidance, and she has always been open to taking risks and looking at new opportunities.
My father was also influential. He helped guide me towards this career path, and taught me to be relationship focused, which effects how I approach every avenue of my work.
