Please share some of your background:
I grew up in New York, went to school in Indiana and now live in Portland, OR. I'm 42 years old, been married for 16+ years and have two boys ages 13 and 9 that I nicknamed "The Clown Show" due to their antics. I'm an avid reader (finished 102 books last year) and huge sports fan. I work for a large multinational technology company as an operations director within Sales & Marketing.

When did you start reading Mitch Rapp? 
My dad had a copy of Term Limits that I borrowed while I was home from college for a visit with my family. I loved it and was hooked! This was sometime around 1998/99 and Vince was just getting started so I began getting each book as they were published. Vince quickly became a must read for me.

Which book is your favorite?
It's hard to pick just one. Term Limits is probably my favorite because it aged so well. I read it again last year and it feels like the story line is still quite relevant. However, I'm going to go with Enemy Of The State because of where I was at in my life at the time. In May 2017 I spent the whole month in the hospital with a rare and critical medical condition that nearly killed me. Fortunately I was able to fight through it and recover, but then I spent an additional 4 months on medical leave from work as I went through PT and tried to get back to normal. During this time, I read a lot of books, including Enemy Of The State, which was part of my mental rehab. Reading thrillers not only killed time between exercises, but helped me exercise my brain. Having my old friend Mitch Rapp back for another adventure during this time was meaningful to me during a difficult time.

Do you have a favorite character and why?  
Stan Hurley has always been one of my favorite characters. He's tough, stubborn, loyal, wise and a great patriot. Plus how can you not like the man who molded Mitch into what he ultimately became?

If you could be any character in Vince's novels, who would it be and why?
Mitch Rapp of course! Who wouldn't want to be the ultimate bad ass? But if i had to pick someone other than Rapp, I'd go with Thomas Stansfield. Think it'd be awesome to be the ultimate spymaster.

Is there anything else you would like to share relating to Mitch Rapp, Vince or Kyle?
I'm so thrilled that Mitch Rapp is in great hands with Kyle. He's crushing it in a big way! Keep up the great work Kyle!
