When I'm not helping guide an entrepreneur to a smoother path, I volunteer with Seminole County Public Schools as a business advisor. I've been a member of their Business Advisory Board for 9 years, as the head of the Technology committee, chairman and representative on numerous committees, purchasing groups and deep dives. I also spend a lot of time devoted to the Central Florida BSA organization where I serve as a District Trainer, Commissioner, and Cubmaster for one of the Packs here in Casselberry.
 
Driving all this work and volunteerism is my family. I have a wonderful wife who helps keep me engaged and four children ages 6 to 22 who keep me on my toes.
