If you could instantly become an expert in something, what would it be?
Plumbing, because I find it to be one of the most difficult trades in my opinion. Just when you think you fixed the leak, it starts again, and for me, being able to fix it properly would be very satisfying.
What’s your go-to way to recharge after a busy week?
I enjoy getting outside and exploring, especially visiting different beaches, it’s very relaxing for me. Traveling to the Caribbean or Mexico is something my wife Alice and I have always loved doing together.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
Don’t worry about what you can’t fix. When I start stressing over things I know I can’t control, I remind myself to let it go. It helps me feel better and keeps me from carrying unnecessary stress.
