Isaac is a proponent of maintaining a work/life balance where possible for my clients, as well as for himself. When Isaac is not working with clients, he enjoys playing video games. His favorite genre is a tie between RPGs and Grand Strategy. Isaac also actively plays Dungeons and Dragons with a friend group on the weekends. He also enjoys reading and spending the rest of his time wrangling his Great Pyrenees dog named Alpine.
