The future is all about building a reputation in the marketplace as the “go-to-guy,” being knowledgeable, responsive and a fun guy to do business with. How do you unwind from a busy day in banking? I have 4 wonderful kids under the age of 16 and it is an endless parade of baseball, soccer and football practices and games; ballet, recitals and plays with my girls. Tiring but invigorating!
