    Activities you are particularly passionate about (hobbies are also welcome )

    As a father of an 8-year-old son and a 6-year-old daughter, I’m most passionate about my family and children. I coach and help out with my son’s basketball and baseball teams and cheer him on with American football along with all of his sports endeavors as a former basketball player myself. I’m my daughter's favorite dance partner and biggest fan at gymnastics while also eating as much ice cream as I can with them both. As a dosanko, I’m an avid snowboarder even as my children have become skiers; we all love the snow and winter even as we love beaches and pools in the summer! I used to have hobbies before kids, but now my family and children are who I’m most passionate about spending time with!
