Something you would NOT know about Chuck from his resume is that he was taken into custody in Milan, Italy long ago due to a misunderstanding as police asked him what he knew about Al Capone (due to his Chicago-issued passport). After a nice chat in two separate languages, he was released! Chucks first ever job was a Lifeguard & Swim Instructor at the park district pool where he was paid triple time to clean the filters, but if he could have any job in the world, he’d love to be a mountain guide year-round!
Outside of work, Chuck enjoys family travels as they have traveled to 49 of 50 states and are Alaska bound in 2027 for number 50. He also enjoys skiing on water & snow.
Chuck and his wife have two grown children & two dogs, Ben & Luna, that cause a lot of trouble!
If you could build a brand-new phone app to do something helpful for you, what would it do?
Rig the Powerball Lottery so I am the only winner of at least $100M! Just once.
What would your pet say about you if we asked it for a reference?
He’s a good guy but wakes us up way too early!
If you were added as a new addition to the crayon box, what color would you be and why?
This is a tough one because I am a bit colorblind.
