  1. I’ve been married for 28 years and have three children.  Last year all three kids graduated; one from high school, one from college, and one from law school.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    1. I enjoy cycling.  The year I joined Plug Power, I rode in the Five Boros Bike Race in New York City.  One time I rode 80 miles in a 78 mile race because I missed a turn.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      1. I played college football at the University of Richmond.  Go Spiders! I even appeared on an opposing team’s game program.  I\u2019m number 55 in the picture.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        1. In the 90’s, I owned a pager and cell phone business.  My customers just referred to me as “the pager guy”.<\/li>
        2. I used to be on the radio.  I had a weekly radio show in high school and again in my mid-20’s.<\/li>
        3. I have hiked the Grand Canyon three times.  The last time was in 2018 with all three kids.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
          \"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
          1. I’ve traveled to all but seven states.<\/li>
          2. I had a number of different jobs growing up.  I worked at a gas station (it’s illegal to pump your own gas in New Jersey), sold Christmas trees, painted houses, did landscaping, was a dishwasher, a bouncer, and worked for a well driller.  <\/li>
          3. During the pandemic, I took up the hobby of nature photography.  These are two of my favorite pictures.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
