    What is something about yourself that no one would guess you’ve done?

    I was a speed skater when I was a kid.  I won state and regional championships and traveled to other states for some of my speed meets.

What is your favorite beverage?
If it’s a sporting event, then it’s beer.  If it’s an evening with my wife, it’s wine.  And if I am in the doghouse, it’s Tuaca.


Who is your favorite cartoon character?
The Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote. Those ACME boxes with blueprints were hilarious.

Where is your favorite place to do your favorite sport?
On the couch with a cool beer.

What is your favorite video game?
Without a doubt it’s Guitar Hero.  I used to like Asteroids and Centipede but that is so old school.  My kids and I already have the world tour version and we rock.  We even have a name for our band, “The Skinny Skinards”.

What was your most favorite adventure?

I would say my favorite adventure was hiking the Napali Coast in Kauai.  It was a ten mile hike, and if you made it half way, there was a secluded cave with some great snorkeling.

Chocolate or vanilla?
Vanilla is the best. I am usually outvoted at home, but if I get a choice it will definitely be vanilla.

Do you have any phobias?
Yes, I learned I have a fear of heights.  I was doing an exterior skin punch list on a building up 15 stories.  The scaffolding was scary at best and all I kept remembering was to get this over and done with as soon as possible.

What special value can Intergroup bring to a client?
Creative ideas would be first on my list and client service is a real close second.  Usually the finished products speak for themselves.
