What’s your claim to fame?

My wife is related to the Gerber baby – Yes! The baby on the face of baby food.                 

What do you hope never changes?

I hope that genuine human connection never fades. There is something irreplaceable about sitting down, with friends and family – laughing, crying, or having in depth conversations that remind us of what really matters. 

What is special about the place you grew up?

From the Amazon rainforest to the snow-covered Andes, from the beaches of the Costa to the Giant Tortoises of the Galapagos, Ecuador has it all. My people are warm and welcoming, making every visit a truly special experience. 

What songs have you completely memorized?

When I was 14, I memorized "Car Radio" by Twenty One Pilots. Any time it comes on the radio I sing my lungs out to it.

What stereotype do you completely live up to?

I am known for always rushing out the door, no matter how much time I’ve had to get ready. Somehow, I’m still always on time.

I want to be remembered as a person who loved others well, but most importantly being a faithful friend and follower of Jesus.
