After Hours
What is your passion outside of work?
I love to run or ride my bike. But my true hobby from work is that I love spending time with my family! My time running or riding gives me the chance to think about all that is on my mind and sort it out. It is very relaxing and inspiring. I started this when I was a child growing up on a farm, and I have continued it since. It makes me appreciate the beauty around us, including trees, the flowers, the rivers, the birds, and animals. I could go on and on!
