What one accomplishment (professional or personal) are you most proud of: I am proud of more than just one accomplishment, but becoming a father is highest on that list.

What are you most passionate about in your profession: I am passionate about working on existing and historic buildings with the unique challenges that come with that building/project type.

What’s your favorite project you’ve worked on at JQ? I am a big baseball fan and got to work on the Arkansas Travelers Ballpark (minor league ballpark in North Little Rock). I also saw a game there after it was constructed, which was a nice experience.
