Hobbies

My hobbies include playing board games with friends and strangers, playing racquet sports (once again with friends and strangers), and traveling with my wife.

Board Games

I love developing and then implementing a strategy, so board games provide a short-term opportunity for this. There isn’t any kind of game I don’t play. (Although I usually stay away from collectible games, because those get very expensive very quick!)  My favorite games right now are: Gloomhaven, Ticket to Ride, Alchemists, 7 Wonders Duel, and Power Grid.

Racquet Sports

I play pretty much any and all racquet sports.  I play pickleball (a sport that kind of plays like giant ping-pong) at least twice a week and I play tennis or squash with some friends from the office.  I was a runner-up in intramural doubles racquetball, and I am just learning how to play badminton!
