What was your first paying job?

My father worked for Newsday on Long Island, so I had a paper route from a very young age.

 

I enjoy spending time with family, hiking, live music, volunteering, dining out, and visiting Lake Placid whenever possible.

 

My wife Elizabeth and I have one daughter named Claire. My proudest moment was becoming her father.

 

Never present problems without solutions.

 

Don’t make money the number one factor in a decision.
