Corvettes along with Trans
Am’s, Infiniti G35, Lexus
IS, Dodge Stealth, and
Camaro’s.

have 3 adult children along with 4 grandkids….2 boys

kids and my wife are born and bred Texans.

What other hobbies or interests do you have?
I am a car enthusiast who tries to attend as many
different types of racing as possible. I have seen
NASCAR and Indy car at Texas Motor Speedway as
well as other tracks. I also attend Indy car in Toronto
and Edmonton, Canada, once a year and have frequented
drag racing at Ennis and other tracks across the country.
My job dictates that I travel quite a bit but I also enjoy
it as a hobby along with family activities with our kids
and grandkids.
