What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
The most rewarding part of being a dad is knowing I get to help shape two incredible people. It’s the everyday moments I treasure most- the conversations in the car, the laughter, helping with HW, showing up when they need me, and watching them discover who they are. My kids have taught me patience, perspective, and unconditional love. I hope they always know their dad believes in them, is proud of them, and will always be in their corner. There’s no greater privilege than being their father.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I strive to be the best dad I can be because it is my duty to provide—not just financially, but with love, guidance, stability, and a strong example. I want to be the rock my children can always count on, the person who shows up, listens, and helps them navigate life. Being their dad is my greatest responsibility and privilege, and I work every day to give them the support, confidence, and foundation they need to become the best versions of themselves.
How would you use the $25,000?
I would use the money to treat my kids to the vacation of their choosing. And with whatever is left over I would split to the 529 college savings plans and their UTMA brokerage accounts.
