More about Chad
While growing up, I had several wonderful examples of life-long learners. My grandmother was always reading a book and wanting to discuss poetry, sacred texts, and theology. My mother went back to school in her 50s to pursue becoming a pastor. I have always admired their hunger for knowledge and their taking action to pursue it. With these women (and many others) as inspiration, I have dedicated time and energy to pursue different interests. To name just a few, I have enjoyed learning about stargazing, astronomy, physics, cryptocurrency, NFTs, martial arts, cycling, and gardening. Staying curious, embracing new experiences, and learning about new things will always be important to me!
