In a parallel universe, what is your profession?

The owner of a sandwich shop. It is a dream of mine to one day open a small scale specialty sandwich restaurant serving all type of foods between bread.

What was your first job?

My first long time job was in high school working in a local butcher. Originally I only worked behind the counter but eventually I was taught how to properly use a knife and many other things about the butcher trade.

What is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?

During my time at the butcher, I was unwillingly fed a breaded and fried deer brain from a freshly hunted deer that my boss was butchering. It did not taste like much, but had the consistency of warm Jell-O…

What was your best Halloween costume?

Recently, I was Dwight from the Office. More specifically, it was the time he had gotten a pumpkin stuck on his head; I was Pumpkin Head Dwight.

Where do you feel most at home?

I feel most home when with friends and family, regardless of the place.

Do you have a talent (outside of your talented self at Bergmeyer) that you are proud of?

While I have not formally played in a few years, I like to consider myself a talented musician. I can play the drums and I am a skilled trumpet player.
