Several very cool things have happened to me recently:
- Held a successful golf tournament, the Southern California Charity Golf Classic where we raised $7,591.81 for charity.
- Named Chairman of the Board for the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce.
- And became a dad to my amazing son, Sebastian.
I’m a lucky guy.
