How are you involved in the community?
Since 2016, I’ve been a board member of Cherish the Children Foundation, a nonprofit devoted to helping children in need and was recently appointed as treasurer. I’m also a team leader for Movember Foundation, a nonprofit that raises funds and awareness for cancer and mental health. I also enjoy volunteer coaching for boys and girls lacrosse.
What do you like to do outside of work?
I love spending quality time with family, including my wife, Aly, and kids, Leila (8) and Weston (6). I look forward to our annual Block Island vacation and spending time in Vermont and the Rhode Island and Connecticut shorelines. I enjoy being active, including skiing, snowboarding, hiking, running, playing golf and going to concerts.
Fun Fact: Each November for the past 14 years, I have grown a mustache to raise money and awareness for cancer research and mental health support.
