About Me
Personal
I am a life-long native of Atlanta, and it remains my favorite city. I was born here, as were both of my parents--all of us at Piedmont Hospital. A few years later, I graduated from Georgia Tech, where I met my wife, Julie. After working for a few years, I went back for my MBA. Julie and I have three wonderful children: Emma, Robin, and Sam. Fortunately, the entire family shares my passion for tennis and sailing, so we get to spend time together outdoors.

My Volunteering and Community Service
My grandparents were great role models for me, and they inspired my dedication to leaving the world a better place than when I arrived. I serve on a few nonprofit boards, help build houses for Habitat for Humanity (yes, I met and hammered alongside President Carter), and mentor students. Our family also takes great pleasure in helping out with holiday coat drives and Toys for Tots.
My Fundraising
My main fundraising focus has been Georgia Tech (our class set the record for percentage participation) and Piedmont Hospital, where we just finished a big capital campaign. I feel an obligation to give back, and I try to share the joy of giving with those I know.
My Charitable Wish List on Changing The Present
I love the idea of people changing the world with a meaningful donation instead of buying more unwanted merchandise. Frankly, I just do not need any more neckties or sweaters. Imagine the difference we can make together as more people show their love with donations given as presents! Please see my charitable wish list, and I hope you will please create your own.
