LET ME EXPLAIN... (1) While I do favor order, structure, and planning, I’m also a great proponent <strong>of</strong> living in the<br />
moment and creating experiences. (2) As a former Hawkeye baseball player [1987-90], I still enjoy the sport—but<br />
soccer is a growing interest for me, and for Des Moines. We’re on track to bring a pr<strong>of</strong>essional soccer stadium to<br />
downtown Des Moines, and I’ve been honored to be a part <strong>of</strong> that project. (3) Caitlin and her family have been<br />
friends since she was young. My son, Michael, played on the same 2nd grade team with her (yes, she played in the<br />
boy’s league!) and I was proud to help coach the team—but am in no way taking any credit for her success! As a<br />
cancer survivor, it was an honor when she asked to play with my name on her jersey as part <strong>of</strong> the team’s support<br />
<strong>of</strong> cancer awareness and survivorship. Needless to say, we’re raving fans <strong>of</strong> Caitlin (on and <strong>of</strong>f the court) and<br />
<strong>of</strong> her continued success!<br />
