Skip (Founder & CEO): Playing golf, traveling, yoga, great restaurants, live music, and watching my Detroit Tigers, New Orleans Saints, Denver Broncos, and Denver Nuggets.
Cat (Client Success Manager): Traveling, hiking, concerts, cooking, reading, romanticizing art I can’t afford, living my best life as a cat and plant mom.
