What was your first job?
I was a Pizza Hut cook when I was about 16. My best friend got me the job there.

Lasagna. Please pile on as much meat and cheese as you possibly can.

If you could have one superpower what would it be?
Teleportation. Imagine never having to be stuck in traffic. I’d be the first one home after a Seahawks game.

Jeopardy. I love shouting out the answers before the contestants so I feel smarter.

What person are you most inspired by?
My wife is the ying to my yang. We’re an unstoppable team. My part is always devil’s advocate.

I can play the Super Mario Bros. level 1-1 song on my teeth with a pencil.

What's the worst gift you ever received?
I won’t mention who gave it to me by name, but one time I got a lump of coal for Christmas. I may have deserved it, actually.
