What is your favorite place you have visited?
I have been several places around the world, but I enjoy simplicity, so Bonita Springs, FL.
What is the most impactful thing you’ve learned over the course of your career?
Don’t sweat the small stuff – and it’s all small stuff.
What is your favorite building?
Being a simple, less is more type of person, the Apple store in Chicago. It was designed by Norman Foster and is a very simple yet elegant design that is a showcase structure on the Chicago River and adjacent to the Michigan Avenue bridge.
