Favorite APABA-PA Memory: Last year’s Summer Picnic. It was the first time I attended the Picnic with my daughter, Sloane, and she absolutely loved playing with the other kids in the pool.

One way APABA-PA has helped you: I am a transplant to Philadelphia, and APABA-PA has helped me expand my network. APABA-PA’s members are always welcoming and willing to help. I have made some amazing friends through my involvement with APABA-PA.

When I’m not at APABA-PA events or working I’m…: hanging out with my beautiful wife (Crystal Tatco-Español) and baby (Sloane), investing in real estate, and CrossFitting.

If I weren’t a lawyer I’d be: a Real estate investor

Favorite Lunch Spot: The Rooster in Philly

I can’t go a day without…: Coffee and music
