Brian is a guy determined to focus on the good things in life. He’s 38-years-old, has been married for 15 years, and is the father to two daughters (8 and 5). He’s worked at Habitat for a little over a year and it is the exact place that he needs to be. After 17 years in corporate America, Brian is finally in a role that engages his talents, skills, and passions while making the world a better place for others.
