“Because I’m in a technology service, I like that I get to play with all the new toys before everyone else, then bring the cool new technology to our other teams for their use on projects.”

Best place to be when you aren’t working?
On the water. I just bought a 21-foot boat that we’ll use to cruise around the bay. It’s big enough to make it out to Catalina on a smooth day.

What’s the coolest thing apart from work that you’re working on right now?
Home automation. This summer my project was making it so that my Google assist would turn my lights on and off, turn on the Jacuzzi, or open the front gate to let the company in. It’s fun.

Favorite musician?
Pink Floyd

Hidden Talent?
Gift wrapping. I’m the go-to for gift wrapping in this house.

What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?
Bungee jumping off a bridge in Australia

What are you streaming these days?
