How do you want to impact Pittsburgh?
I’ve been actively engaged in young leadership opportunities in Pittsburgh since moving here in 2010, from boards to leadership programs to my own career trajectory, and have enjoyed such great, deep connections in return. In my current phase of life as a father of two young children, I’d like to do what I can to reconnect and rebuild engagement for people in a similar phase of life as mine who are a bit more limited in their ability to leave home and stay engaged outside of work and home duties. I am deeply concerned about our societal disconnect since 2020 and would like to do my part in our small corner of the world to keep people connected.
What is your favorite part of Pittsburgh?
I love that Pittsburgh offers me the best of city living (excellent food, culture, opportunity) but still has such a close, accessible feel. My favorite physical place to be in town is paddleboarding or enjoying a local beer at Allegheny Rivertrail Park with my family OR digging into a table full of Taiwanese food at Cafe 33 in Squirrel Hill.
