When did you start working at HDC?

April 1, 1999 (I was sick that day)


What is your job title?

CFO & Technologist

 

What do you do at HDC?

Drink coffee and take up space at meetings. Sometimes I do the budget, or handle the church insurance matters, as well as IT planning and oversight. I do supervise the office personnel and accounting staff, but mostly I drink coffee.

 

What is on your iPod?

Mozart to Metallica and everything in between. My collection includes heavy amounts of Genesis, Art of Trance, ELO, Chick Corea, Metallica, The Police, The Who, U2, David Sanborn, and David Crowder. It is also filled with more current stuff like Weezer, Jimmy Eat World, Beck, Rammstein, Jonathan Coulton, and of course, the Beatles.

 

In your opinion, what is the greatest movie of all time?

Lord of the Rings Trilogy

 

What is on your TiVo?

I watch Formula 1, Champ Car, LeMans, Paris-Dakar, and other non-oval racing. When racing isn't on, I watch the Ducks play hockey, or the Dodgers play baseball. I enjoy Mythbusters, the Thirsty Traveler, and The Office. I like Lost, but I watch it on DVD, not on my TiVo.

 

What is your favorite book?

Velvet Elvis

 

Children:

2

 

On a beautiful day I like to…

Load up the Jeep and take the family out to places where normal vehicles fear to tread. I like to play video games with my son, and I like to take long road trips (3500 miles or so is the current record. We want to break it). I enjoy roasting coffee, talking with good friends, and playing with my wife and kids.
