Phil is originally from a town outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and grew up immersed in sports year-round, with football and wrestling being his main passions. When he wasn’t on the field or the mat, he could be found exploring the great outdoors – hunting, hiking, or finding any excuse to stay active. These days, Phil’s love for adventure hasn’t slowed down. Whether it’s bungee jumping, skiing, paddle boarding, or trekking through scenic trails with his camera for landscape photography, he’s always seeking new ways to experience the beauty of nature.
Coming from a large Italian family in the Northeast, Phil appreciates good food, lively gatherings, and the occasional friendly debate. His adventurous spirit is part of what inspired him to travel for work, exploring new places and meeting people from all walks of life. If you know of a great hiking trail or a hidden gem in the area, feel free to share – he’s always up for his next adventure.
