Get to know Collin

 

+ What's a typical workday like for you?

I prefer to get to the office earlier in the morning, rather than later. I like to work on my more difficult/high priorities items first, then tend to fill the remaining hours with other items on my to-do list — I love the satisfaction of getting things done!

+ Any favorite quotes?

"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."

+ Where might you be found on the weekends?

Local rivers, local breweries, or in the mountains — hunting, fishing or skiing. Otherwise, I'm at the hockey rink or out skating on "wild ice" when the ponds and lakes freeze over.

+ Do you have any skills or talents that most people don't know about?

In my younger years, being a student athlete was my biggest priority. I was very blessed to have won four state championships and one national championship in various sports, including hockey, football, & basketball.

+ If we went to happy hour, what would you order?

A local IPA or a gin & tonic.
