Who was your role model as a kid and why?:
Huckleberry Finn. He was an adventurer who followed his own path. He inspired me to follow my own path later in my life. I joined the Navy, traveled around the world, sky dived, climbed the Grand Teton, ran the Chicago Marathon, drove across the country in an old VW van. My mother had a saying stuck on the refrigerator when I was growing up that said "Life is not a dress rehearsal" - and that's what I believe.
What is the most amazing thing you've experienced in your life?:
The births of my two sons were the most amazing things I've experienced. Not just the physical births, the whole experience of having kids is the best thing that's ever happened to me. Beyond having children, I would say serving in the Navy and traveling and experiencing different cultures.
What do you do to maintain a healthy lifestyle?:
I run, I have a garden and grow vegetables, seriously try to watch what I eat. I enjoy cooking and eating "healthy" food.
Why should you be the next Every Man Jack?:
I think that I represent what guys are all about today: staying in shape, being current, having a good relationship, working at a job I enjoy, being a good dad - not necessarily in that order, but all important to having a balanced life.
