What attracted you to HCP?
Through size and reputation, HCP has a fascinating seat from which we are able to speak with some of the best minds in the business across the entire market. No better place to learn and grow.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
I have a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old, so limited time for hobbies, but I do enjoy golf. I am currently encouraging my kids to play as well, but thus far they prefer to use their clubs as weapons against each other. Still a work in progress.
Little known fact(s) about me:
I was the mascot my freshman year of high school (go lions!), but frankly, the suit started to smell terrible, and the job didn’t quite produce the adoration from the cheerleading squad that I’d envisioned.
