My Very First Job and What I Learned From It: Working at my dad’s bread crumb factory, Midwest Bakery Products. My father taught me so much about doing things the right way, all the time, no matter how hard it is. 

Hobby/Passion: Seeing live music, playing golf, watching Cleveland sports (UGH!) — but mostly these are just excuses to hang out and enjoy the ride with my wife, our family and so many great friends.
