long ago to remember. They are probably dead! Y OUR “GO TO” INTERVIEW
QUESTION? What are your biggest strengths and what your biggest
weaknesses? BEST OR WORST DECISION YOU MADE IN LAST 6 MONTHS: Best Decision
was to change jobs and take on a new challenge. I don’t have a worst
decision. I believe that my life has been changing for the better. The
older I get, the wiser I get. I look forward to all of the new
opportunities in my life. WHAT CAN DEVELOPERS DO DIFFERENTLY WHEN DESIGNING A
PROPERTY? Talk to property management fi rst for input before designing
the property. Typically, they do it when fi nalizing the plans and by then
it is too late to make many of the needed changes that would really
make a diff erence. BINGE-WATCHED EMBARRASSINGLY FAST: MindHunter HOW DO

To have everyone in the group go around and say one good thing about
each person, thereby building up the esteem of each person on the

PEEVE? Laziness. CAREER HIGHLIGHT: The number of people that I have
hired that have been promoted to higher positions including RPMS to
VPs. ONE ITEM ON YOUR BUCKET LIST: To travel to many places in the United
States where I have been for work, but have not had time to spend
enjoying them on a personal level.

and we didn’t stay in touch YOUR “GO TO” INTERVIEW QUESTION? How would
your current boss describe you? BEST OR WORST DECISION YOU MADE IN LAST 6
MONTHS: Taking my eyes off the trail for 3 seconds when biking Green
Mountain one morning before work. I crashed, hard, and ended up
with 10 stitches in my elbow and rotator cuff surgery. Note to self,
DON’T take your eyes off the trail even if you’re really close to the
trail-head. WHAT CAN DEVELOPERS DO DIFFERENTLY WHEN DESIGNING A PROPERTY? That
groups all developers into one bucket. I fi nd that one developer may
exclude something important but the next developer includes it. BINGE-
