What gets you out of bed in the morning?
“I never use an alarm clock to wake up in the morning. Even as a teenager, I could never sleep past 8 am. But now our two corgis, Tito and Maple, are up and ready to go outside and then have their breakfast. My wife, Darcy, is usually still sleeping!“
What do you enjoy most about what you do?
“I enjoy the design process and the challenges it presents. It’s rewarding to create building designs to meet the needs of the end-users, witness the construction, and see the end product. Also, I enjoy working with all the amazing people at PROCON!“
What do you enjoy doing for fun?
“Spending time on Lake Winnipesaukee with family and friends. Also enjoy mountain biking, boating, wake surfing, hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, and any other outdoor activity. Darcy and I want to plan a drive to Nova Scotia in the Bronco with the top down some summer.“
Tell us about your family:
“Darcy and I have been married for 30 years and have raised 3 delightful children. Mark is married, works for Fidelity in Merrimack, and purchased his second home in Dunbarton. Jack is a junior at SNHU studying business and marketing and plays hockey on their club team. Peyton is a sophomore, also at SNHU, working on her general education. She is a cheerleader for the university and will be competing in Daytona, Florida, this spring.”
