If I wasn’t in my field of work, I would probably:
Own and operate a food truck. I always thought it would be a fun and rewarding experience!

What gets you up in the morning?
On weekdays, I look forward to riding my motorcycle to work. On weekends, I look forward to spending time with my family.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be a race car driver. I have always had a fascination with machines and how they work. So, later in my teens I wanted to be a mechanical engineer.

What is a fun or interesting fact about your hometown?
Yankton was once the capital of the Dakota territory and is located on the Missouri River.

Coffee or tea? Anything in it?
I prefer naturally-dried coffee with a little cream.
