Outside the Office:
 
Dr. Smith takes his time to walk through life making sure to provide himself with chances for reflection. He does so with his fiancé Madison and his dog Norman while back packing, paddleboarding, weightlifting, and cultivating a “green thumb”. He also likes to take the opportunity to eat good food whether it be restaurants in the area or a new recipe for his smoker. You’ll commonly find him planning his weekends around what he is in the mood to eat. Restaurant recommendations are highly encouraged!
