- Tell us about yourself. Born in Southern California, Michigan State University Grad, I ended up in Park City after college on a lark. I had been here skiing once with my Dad and had great memories, so it just seemed right. Ski bummed my way to GM of a timeshare resort, and was transferred away to Palm Springs, CA. Met my wife Sharon in Palm Springs, then followed her to England for 6 years, where we ran a pub/restaurant. Landed back in Park City 16 years ago for a winter just to see what might happen.... Started as a shop manager for Aloha after a few seasons at ResortQuest, and worked my way up to President 11 years ago. Love to ski, golf, bike, fish and travel.
- Why Historic Park City? Main Street has it's own unique vibe. A special feel and mix of people, businesses, and atmosphere. I love that it is predominately local, one-off type shops, businesses and restaurants, run by people who actually live here. It is also lined with character filled old buildings that make for a very special place to work and visit.
- What is your favorite winter activity? For me, I'm afraid it is working! Followed closely by skiing.
- Do you ski? Where? Mostly PCMR, as it is the most convenient.
- Describe the perfect Historic Park City day. Springtime morning groomers, lunch on Main Street, 9 holes of golf, and dinner at Butchers or Chimayo.
