Why did you decide to attend the UA?
The University of Arizona is a part of my roots. I grew up in Tucson, my parents attended the UA and met on campus and my brother is also a wildcat

What are your fondest memories of the University?
My fondest memory as a student is dating my wife, Alexia (Korte ’05)- we had our first date at Gentle Ben's and our second at No Anchovies on University Boulevard.

How do you stay connected to the UA today?
My wife and I have a one-year-old daughter, Alessabetta, and we spend a lot of down time together on campus - going for walks, eating dinner on University Boulevard, and attending basketball, football, and baseball games.

Why do you give to the UA?
We donate to the Arizona Athletics Wildcat Club. I think it's important to support student-athletes because they give so much to our community
