Hobbies and Interests
I love all sports, including football (American and soccer), basketball, and baseball. My favorite teams are usually "local", such as the SF Forty-Niners, Sacramento Kings, and SF Giants. I also like to hike, fish for trout and snow ski in the Sierra Nevada's. I enjoy collecting antique coins and stamps and securities. Oh yes, I do love to eat - foreign foods are often my favorite dishes. Did I mention I like to travel too?????

Personal Note
I wish every student much success in his or her education. I have an open door policy so please feel free to drop by my office and talk business and/or about SIFE and what SIFE can do for you ;-)
