"I’m originally from a small town in Illinois, and decided to move to Arizona for the “palm trees and clear skies,” which I thought would be like Hawaii. No one told me it would be 110 degrees for half the year, and everything is scorched brown — big difference. I went to the University of Arizona, and then moved to Scottsdale in 2002. My family owned a very small Porsche dealership during my childhood, so I was indoctrinated at an early age to believe that Porsche is the quintessential example of German engineering; a few decades later, I still feel the same. In my free time, I enjoy losing money trading stocks, running, and traveling to far away places."
