A typical day in my life includes… During Halloween Season its quite hectic, most of the time the phone is attached to my ear between interaction with all of our onsite teams, city municipalities, maintaining positivity and production, our teams work morning to night for several months to make these events possible.
I was born… San Diego, CA
My favorite thing about Arizona… Would have to be Barrett-Jackson, I fell in love with cars at a young age and have been attending since I can remember.
I’m listening to… Most things Counting Crows and Zach Bryan
My family… They are everything, from my kids to extended family, they are the one thing that will always be there and keep me motivated.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be… My late mother, I’m pretty sure she could take me to the next level of success with one conversation.
One thing I cannot live without… Things that go fast
When I was younger, I wanted to be… Retired sounded pretty good, still does
I’m inspired by… My father, I come from a large family that lost our mother when I was young and he stepped up as a single dad to ensure we never missed out on any opportunities, I believe he is the main reason our family tree is successful.
The one person who motivates me is… This one comes in at a tie between my brothers, both of them are Emergency Medicine Physicians and the amount of time they put in without hesitation motivates me to do the same.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be… That nobody ever had to feel any form of hurt or sadness, although some of my favorite country songs would then go out the window 🙂
The perfect day would be… A weekend away in a cabin with no cell service and no responsibility!
My first job was… Mowing lawns for a few bucks as a kid
My favorite escape… Desert Season at the Imperial Sand Dunes with my loved ones
My life… It continues to get better with time, age and patience
I’m currently working on… Several attractions nationwide including Arizonas best, Fear Farm and 13th Floor.
Always… Own your mistakes
Never… Say its not my job
Favorite Quote… Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn’t stop to enjoy it.
Biggest Dream… My kids grow up to be successful and happy
My Pet Peeve(s)… People that are rude to servers, hard no on my end.
