Hidden Gem

In my Glen Ellen Village, there is the 1300 year old “Grandfather” redwood tree tucked away in the Jack London State Park approximately a 60 minute walk into the forest from my backyard.

Ideal Sunday

Sunday afternoon for me following a musical & community filled church service has me and my sweet wife playing Frisbee in the Sonoma Plaza which leads into picnic lunch and quality time on the hammock watching the grapes grow in our back yard.

Travel Item

My favorite traveling companion, Masako . . . wife and friend forever!

You Must Know

If you come to the Wine Country, you must know “It’s not about the alcohol.” There is so much more than wine, food, chocolate, flowers, cheese, agriculture, music, art! And wine, of course.

Bucket List

Lithuania, the capital city of Vilnius.

My Role

Best thing about my job is that I get to be 100% me, with other people while I encourage them to be themselves. All that, in the most spectacular places on the planet.
