Fun/Interesting Facts

• Dave is a devoted attendee of the Hillside Music Festival each summer.
• He has been an avid traveller who has backpacked to over 30 countries.  As the father of two young boys, Dave’s idea of a dream vacation now consists of lying very still with a cold drink close at hand.
• Dave stands 5’8” but this is primarily torso.  While his short legs dashed his hopes of becoming an Olympic sprinter, they are highly beneficial when crammed into a seat on an airplane, in the stands of a sporting event or at the theatre.
• Dave has an aversion to any liquids or food bits on his kitchen countertops.  During meal prep time, he adeptly switches between cooking and cleaning up any mess created by his wife (much to her displeasure).  On a similar note, the Vegas odds of him owning a dog that sheds are 10,000,000 : 1.
