Getting the Edge on Will

Something most people don’t know about me:
I ran with the bulls in Pamplona. Toro! Toro! Toro!

Worst job:
I spent a summer trimming trees in college. It was all going great until I stumbled upon a hornets nest.

First job:
Dishing out Frozen Yogurt to the hungry hoards in the Cherry Creek Mall.

Favorite quote:
“Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.” Mark Twain

Favorite thing to do outside of work:
I love playing in the mountains. Be it skiing, snowboarding, fishing, or mountain biking. If I am in the hills, I am a happy camper!

Pet(s):
I love dogs. I grew up with Retrievers. I don’t have a dog right now, but am trying to talk my wife into a German Shorthair or a Lab.

Who inspires you:
My dad has always been my greatest hero. He is always there for me and doles out great bits of wisdom.

Favorite food:
I have been on an Indian food kick recently. Love curries. I have made a pretty decent Tikka Masala, although my Vindaloo still needs some work.

Favorite music:
I have a fairly eclectic taste in music. I can get into a groove with classic rock, country, hip hop and even a little blue grass.

Favorite hobbies:
I have turned into a bit of a foodie recently. I love cooking, the spicier the dish the better in my book.

Will listened to what I was looking for and explained how to optimize my resume to better reflect my strengths.
