Chicago - Financial Advisor
This superfit financial advisor actually trained to be a lawyer, but his career took him to helping others manage their money to fulfill their dreams. He spent his 40th birthday with 25 friends at Si Senor in Punta Mita, Mexico, enjoying (among other activities) a custom 8-course custom tasting menu paired with wine, tequila, and mezcal on a candle-lit beach. An avid consumer of culture, he says the English National Ballet’s rendition of Akram Khan’s Giselle was “the most exhilarating night of live performance I have ever seen, period.”

Dean Martin: The King of Cool. Nothing could be as much fun than a member of the Rat Pack and the stories he’d share: booze, politics, and banter. He’d be entertaining and charming for a road trip.
Lady Gaga: Provocative and innovative. She’d be amazing at Carpool Karaoke.
Barrack Obama: His presidential victory was groundbreaking. He raised the hopes of all people from marginalized communities that they would have a voice in America moving forward. I’d love to get his thoughts on the tensions in America today. I also think his silky baritone voice would compliment Dean and Gaga’s voices from Carpool Karaoke.
