Who do you look up to or admire?
I admire entrepreneurs who have the vision to disrupt industries and the perseverance to see their ideas through to success. Figures like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk come to mind—not just for their innovations but for their relentless drive to push boundaries and challenge the status quo.

When you're not working, where in Gilbert do you spend your time?
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family exploring Gilbert’s parks and trails, especially the Riparian Preserve. It’s a great way to unwind, and I love the sense of community in Gilbert. We also enjoy checking out local restaurants and supporting other local businesses.
