Dad to: Stella, 8, and Nico, 16

Hometown: Tucson, AZ

Favorite ways to spend family time in AZ: Out and about enjoying the nice weather. Exploring and creating memorable experiences that our whole family will cherish.

Your most rewarding fatherhood moment: Watching my kids grow up to be the best versions of themselves.

Biggest challenge as a dad: Managing the time to spend with my family. Iā€™m starting to (finally) get better at that.

A father who inspires you and why: My own father. He came from nothing, worked extremely hard, gave love and encouragement, all the while guiding me along my journey.

Best piece of advice for a new dad:Ā Family first. Sometimes, we get wrapped up in work and miss the growing moments and pivotal times that are so important to our children. Creating structure along with compassion and showing love are monumental for our children.

Your biggest hope for your children: Happiness, self-love and being proud of their accomplishments, no matter how big or small those are. They learn from their mistakes and celebrate key things in their lives, as well as respecting everyone around them.

How are you celebrating Fatherā€™s Day? Side by side with my wife, kids and rest of our family. Such an important day for so many of us.
