What made you select your chosen profession? I like to find solutions to problems. Every day is different and every transaction, case or situation is unique. I enjoy working with my team to figure out a way to resolve the issues presented in a way that is most beneficial to our client.

Personal mission statement: To keep everything in perspective and work every day to be a better husband, father, son, brother, friend, attorney and co-worker. Your life in this world is short and you only get one crack at it. I am a firm believer in hard work and dedication, but when my time comes, I probably won’t look back and wish I spent just one more day in the office.

Books on your nightstand: South Carolina: A History by Walter Edgar; The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway.

Favorite hour of the day and why: Currently, 2:30 a.m., when I get to feed my new little girl; followed by a close second at 7 a.m., when I get to wake up my other two kids.
