Beyond tech, I'm a loving husband and proud father of two. I'm deeply involved in the small business community by helping small business owners through training employees and implementing strategies that improve their security stance. Further, I help lead a networking group in Palm Harbor and help small business owners connect.
I am an adult volunteer with my Children's Scout Troop. I teach the "Cyber Chip" badge which shows younger children how to stay safe on the internet. Further, I am a counselor for the Programming, and Digital Technology merit badges. I am an Eagle Scout and hope that my kids can learn the same life skills through scouting as I did as a youth.
We love to spend time outdoors and camping and backpacking have become a family activity. When the Florida heat gets too much, we sneak away to the mountains and spend some time reconnecting with nature. It's a bucket list item for me to through hike all 2,160 miles of the Appalachian Trail.
As the son of Greek immigrants and married to a wonderful woman from the same island, we try to maintain our culture in our family. We speak Greek at home and my wife and I have taught our children how to cook traditional foods from our island of Crete.
