My wife, Emily, and I were married in July 2000. We have four children: Joseph, Benjamin, Kaylana, and Jeffrey. Our family enjoys hiking, camping, and reading together. Our favorite books to read to the children are “Sideway Stories from Wayside School” by Luis Sachar and the Magic Tree House Series by Mary Osbourne.
