This article is part of a series introducing the SIGUCS 2018 Conference Core Committee. Each Committee member submitted answers to questions created by the SIGUCCS Marketing Committee.

How many SIGUCCS conferences have you attended?
Four

Which previous SIGUCCS conference was your favorite, and why?
SIGUCCS 2012 in Memphis, which was my first. I went in hardly knowing anyone and came away from it feeling like I’d been part of it for years.

How did you get involved as a volunteer in SIGUCCS?
I was invited by my boss and grandboss, who have both been conference chairs. At this rate, I’m projecting I’ll be the 2021 SIGUCCS Conference Chair.

What’s an accomplishment that you are especially proud of?
I’m a huge advocate for the use of social media for career engagement, and I’ve spoken on the subject for college workshops, conferences, and at local high schools.

You could always stop and talk to me about…
The San Antonio Spurs #GoSpursGo

What do you do for fun?
I am an upright bassist. Performing music is my very-time-consuming-somewhat-lucrative hobby, and it’s where most of my non-work hours go. In the little time I have left, my wife and I can be seen at comic and anime conventions—in costume, of course.

SIGUCCS 2018 Orlando … who is your favorite Disney character??
Kronk – The Emperor’s New Groove
