Interests

JD has four kids, two dogs, and one not-so-friendly cat. He spent most of his children’s youth coaching soccer and taking active roles on soccer club boards. Now that three-fourths of them are out of the house, he is scrambling to figure out how to play a variety of different racquet sports in order to keep up with his wife on the courts. He once made 30-minute brownies in 20 minutes.
