Describe a time that you wanted to quit something you were doing, but didn’t.
I found myself in a job I didn't really enjoy. One lunch hour I realized that I was the only one who could change things for myself and bought a newspaper right away. I found a posting in another industry I had always been interested in, called them right that second, and completed a phone interview.

Who is your favourite superhero and why?
Colossus of the X-Men. He can change himself into solid steel at will but has a calm, sensitive demeanor. He's a paradoxical character who lends so much to the storyline of the comic.
When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
A Cowboy! I grew up on a 100-acre ranch and have been riding horses since I was 5 years old. There are few things more enjoyable than running flat out on a horse with nothing but open field in front of you. They are powerful, majestic animals.
What is the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done?
During a visit with my uncle one morning over breakfast he asked me if I wanted to go skydiving that day. When I realized he wasn't joking, I instantly agreed and 3 hours later I was jumping out of a plane at 3,500 feet.
What is your favourite outfit to wear?
An old pair of tan cargo shorts (all year round), a vintage 70's t-shirt and my flip-flops.
What was your favourite childhood television program?
Transformers all the way!!! As a kid I used to compile entire VHS tapes of episodes and watch them all the way through on the weekend. And still watch them on Saturday mornings.
