Product Engineer

Years at Bay: 4

Quick facts:
Cleveland native and currently living downtown. Miami University graduate. Loves playing any sport, but only a fan of watching football and soccer.

What are three things you have a passion for?
Music festivals, sand volleyball (the best and maybe only sport to play while having a few beers in the sun), DIY projects

You have to give up one food forever and eat only one forever. What would they be?
I think I could eat anything, but I would give up low-quality hot dogs. I don’t trust what goes into them. I would eat buffalo chicken dip forever, even if I couldn’t use chips to dip.

What are your proudest accomplishments professionally and personally?
Professionally, I am proud whenever major projects that started in a concept phase move into production. Personally, I am proud of my education.

What are your favorite things about Cleveland/NE Ohio?
Music venues, the Cleveland Browns football games and other events are right around the corner from me. All of my family lives close by.

Would you rather...
Eat a worm or go bungee-jumping?
Bungee-jump, although I’d rather try skydiving.
Be a cat or a dog?
A dog. I like cats too, but most people seem to be anti-cat and hair balls are the main downside. Although, I think I’d like cat nip.
Only travel by mule or unicycle?
Unicycle. The upkeep on a mule would be too much of a hassle.

What was your favorite thing about your favorite vacation destination?
My favorite vacation destination is a music festival on the beach of Gulf Shores, Alabama. There’s a lot to love but the location of being on a beach enjoying great music can’t be beat.

What did you want to be when you grew up?
A lawyer. As I got older, the job lost its luster.

What is one thing that nobody knows about you?
I plead the Fifth.

Who will be the first Cleveland sports team to win a championship this century?
Cleveland Browns, if we can go more than 2-3 seasons without cleaning house and ending quarterback careers.

If you could have the ability to teleport for one day, where would you travel?
I would travel to watch the men’s soccer Team USA in a World Cup match.

If you could have the superpower of your choice, what would it be?
Regeneration, which would essentially be immortality. Then in the future all the other superpowers, like flying, invisibility, super-strength, will probably be available through technology.

Best and worst summer job?
My only summer job was contract work (window installations, re-siding houses, building decks, etc.). It was good because I learned home repair skills but as a kid I could have enjoyed being lazy.

If you could have dinner with anybody, who would it be?
Myself from the future to get stock/life/health tips, etc.

What came first, the chicken or the egg?
The chicken, because you can’t have a chicken egg without a chicken laying it.

When cheese gets its picture taken what does it say?
If it’s pepper jack cheese, I’d eat it before we could ever find out. If it’s not pepper jack, then who cares?
