He is currently trying (and mostly failing) to balance work, an in-progress Master of Education degree, fatherhood (one daughter and another on the way), marriage to his high school sweetheart, and an overactive imagination.

His current heroes are Neil Gaiman and Sir Ken Robinson, though neither has yet responded to his offer of brunch.
