Q: How many kids do you have?
A: 2 Boys (Miles and Wesley) and 2 girls (Hannah and Leighton, we call her Bruce)

Q: Favorite part about being a dad?
A: My favorite part of being a dad is seeing my kids growing into caring, empathetic, smart, and funny individuals, with their own unique personalities and ways they interact.

Q: What's your funniest dad moment?
A: My Funniest dad moment is probably when I caught my younger son, Wesley drawing on the wall (in scribbles appropriate his age). When I stopped the drawing to reprimand him, my older son, Miles, seeing an opportunity (so I thought) to get his brother in more trouble, said "Wesley drew on the wall here too" and walked me over to our front hallway closet, moved aside the coats, and revealed a well drawn stick figure that was obviously made by the skillful hand of a 5 year old and not his 3 year old brother as he had said.

Q: What’s on your wish list for Father’s Day this year and why?
A: The Breitling AVI 1953 Re-Edition is what's on my watch wish list this year. This is just such a versatile, robust watch. It is something I can wear horseplaying with the kids or dressing up for a dinner out with the wife. It exudes a sense of classic cool of the era that inspired it.

Q: Favorite part about being a dad?

Q: How many kids do you have?
A: 2

Q: Favorite part about being a dad?
A: I have loved watching them grow up and spending quality time with them throughout their lives.

Q: What's your funniest dad moment?
A: Lots of funny moments but one was watching my daughter, Ella—as a toddler—trying to ride our mastiff dog, Logan, like a horse.

Q: What’s on your wish list for Father’s Day this year and why?
A: My pick would be the Tudor Black Bay GMT 41mm. It is a great watch that goes with any occasion and looks awesome. The fact that the GMT f
unction establishes local time while keeping the time in two other time zones is pretty cool.

Q: How many kids do you have?
A: I have 1 child (Teddy) aka the best child.

Q: Favorite part about being a dad?
A: 
His goofiness. I also love getting to watch him learn different and new things so quickly.

Q: What's your funniest dad moment?
A: 
I recently got a hair cut and when my son first saw me afterward, he asked, “Why do you look like that? I like when your hair is “circle-y””.

Q: What’s on your wish list for Father’s Day this year and why?
A: 
Cartier is a classic that doesn’t miss. I’d love to own a Santos-Dumont, the navy blue alligator leather strap complements Cartier’s iconic blue crown and gives it a little more flair than the normal design.
