What do you like to do when you're not designing cool equipment?

A love for the outdoors drives much of what I do—I enjoy backcountry hunting, fishing, and exploring new places whenever I can. I make it a priority to spend time with family and friends and have developed a strong passion for real estate investing and hands-on projects.
