What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
Watching my kids succeed at a task they originally struggled with but worked hard to master. Whether it’s figuring out how to steer a remote control car, completing a puzzle, or finally learning how to climb onto the couch 🫠—seeing that lightbulb moment when their persistence pays off is the best feeling in the world.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I want my kids to be fully prepared for the day they’re out on their own. Instead of having to look up a YouTube tutorial for every minor issue, I want them to dive straight into a problem and tackle it head-on. My goal is to instill the confidence that anything is possible if you give it your best effort and push through.
How would you use the $25,000?
I’d take my wife and kids on a once-in-a-lifetime family trip to build unforgettable memories. We’d travel to catch all-ages concerts so my kids can experience iconic bands live before they retire. And on a practical note: a new car seat for my son, so I stop needing the force of an ox just to tighten the straps!
