Who is someone you look up to that has had an impact on your life?
There are a number of people in my life that have a significant impact on me from family members to teachers to business associates. My approach has always been to try to learn as much as I can from each and integrate the positive traits and habits into my life while continuing to remain true to myself. I believe there is something to learn from everyone and trying to view life from a different perspective can really help you grow.
What is your favourite activity?
One of my favourite activities is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I’ve been training off and on for about 15 years. While I don’t get to spend as much time training as I would like anymore, it remains a great physical outlet to relieve stress and do something fun. There’s nothing like going through a tough training session to put life into perspective!
What do you love most about your job?
There are a number of things I love about what I do, but there are two aspects that stand out the most:
1. The ability to positively impact people’s lives – In our business we have the ability not only to impact our clients on a daily basis, but their families and the community at large. This is a responsibility and a privilege. It’s an amazing feeling to be able to help people and see the results of that effort.
2. The autonomy for myself and others around me to grow and improve – I love the pursuit of perpetual improvement. We work in an industry that is constantly changing and evolving. This allows us the opportunity to develop and get a little bit better everyday – both for our clients and as people in general.
