In his spare time, he enjoys spending time with his family and 2 dogs.  His other pastime activities include reading (history topics), watching movies, swimming, snowboarding/skiing, whitewater rafting, shooting guns, hiking, and scuba diving.  He is a PADI Certified Rescue Diver which emphasizes emergency response and diver rescue.
