My hero
As a cellist, my hero is Yo-Yo Ma. Despite winning 18 Grammys, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the National Medal of Arts, he is humble and dedicated to using his craft and platform for good. He is an ambassador of cultural exchange and peace. We'd all be wiser if we took his message to heart.
My family
I'm forever grateful for my wife, Susan, and daughters, Charlie and Poppyanne who bring love, support, and happiness to my life.
Community causes
I'm passionate about two community organizations in Kansas City: 1) Harvesters - community food bank. 2) Bridging the Gap - an organization making the KC area more sustainable by connecting the environment, economy, and community
