On a personal note, I was on the Baylor Golf Team and still play competitively at the state level and every so often in USGA events. I’m an avid skier and can be found in the bumps on Mary Jane (for as long as my knees and back hold up). I’m blessed with two kids and find myself accompanying them to their various activities: dance class, golf, rock climbing, skiing, swimming, and soccer to name a few.
