Dad to: Brody and Grahm Brown, 12-year-old twins
Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia
Favorite ways to spend family time in WA: Outdoors, for sure. We hike and bike. We like to take adventures to places like the Grand Canyon. We enjoy sports, love food and travel.
Your most rewarding fatherhood moment: Watching Brody and Grahm excel in mainstream school and crush it in life.
Biggest challenge as a dad: Making sure my children understand that in life, if you want something, you have to do the work to obtain it. That you have to be willing to dare greatly and fail in order to succeed.
Best piece of advice for a new dad: Be present!
Your biggest hope for your children: To be good humans, to be authentic and real to who they are, and to add value to lives of other people on this planet.
How are you celebrating Father’s Day? With my wife and kids. Just hangin’ and eat some food. Get outside and feel the sun. Laugh. Build memories!
