Q: What are you reading?

A: “Becoming” by Michelle Obama. Whatever your politics, this person has a perspective that is unique in the entire history of our country.

Q: What is your favorite restaurant?

A: My favorite lunch is Red Beans & Rice at Popeyes. For dinner it’s Public School 702 at Downtown Summerlin. For special occasions, we like Le Cirque or Picasso at Bellagio.

Q: How do you decompress after a long week?

A: In the pool with our three energetic boys. Between all the jumping and horseplay, there is no bandwidth to ponder what is stressing me about the business.

Q: What is the biggest challenge facing Southern Nevada?

A: Water (he says after mentioning his pool). Like most people I love the green spaces and my home’s landscaping, but all of it is artificial and not sustainable. At some point, probably still a ways off, we will need to accept that we live in a desert and shouldn’t try to make it look like Florida.
