A typical day in my life includes\u2026 <\/strong>work, work, work, and then family, family, family. This balance is important to me.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was born\u2026 <\/strong>Lake Tahoe, CA<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite thing about Arizona\u2026 <\/strong>The beautiful desert landscape and what it has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m listening to\u2026 <\/strong>Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My family\u2026 <\/strong>The best thing that has happened to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be\u2026 <\/strong>My Grandfather that I was never able to truly know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing I cannot live without\u2026 <\/strong>morning coffee with my family around our kitchen table or patio. It\u2019s the simple things that I am thankful for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was younger, I wanted to be\u2026 <\/strong>A fine artist. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m inspired by\u2026 <\/strong>people that live outside the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The one person who motivates me is\u2026 <\/strong>my wife. She is so strong and put together. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I could change anything in the world, it would be\u2026 <\/strong>how parents feed their children. This is something that I am truly passionate about. From what we grow in our own homes to incorporating our children in the cooking process, it all makes an impact on them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The perfect day would be\u2026 <\/strong>Cooking with my family and sharing food and stories around the table.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first job was\u2026 <\/strong>Dishwasher. Starting in an entry level position makes you truly appreciate all of the positions in a restaurant as you continue to grow your career and skill set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite escape\u2026 <\/strong>Anything in nature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My life\u2026 <\/strong>is blessed. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m currently working on\u2026 <\/strong>writing a book named \u201cChef Dad\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always\u2026 <\/strong>try your hardest.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never\u2026 <\/strong>quit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Favorite Quote\u2026 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think preparing food and feeding people brings nourishment not only to our bodies but to our spirits. Feeding people is a way of loving them, in the same way that feeding ourselves is a way of honoring our own createdness and fragility.\u201d \u2014 Shauna Niequist<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biggest Dream\u2026 <\/strong>Home on the beach. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Pet Peeve(s)\u2026 <\/strong>complacency. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
