Getting to know more about Mason ...

Where do you like to vacation?
My friends and family's favorite place is definitely Port Saint Joe (Florida). It is located close to Panama City so you have a lot of great beaches without the crazy tourism.

If you had to eat one meal, every day for the rest of your life, what would it be?
It would probably be home cooked short ribs, mashed potatoes, and Brussel sprouts. Or anything from Cava if I had to get takeout!

What are three things you have left on your bucket list?
One, learn another language. Two, write a book. Three, travel to a bunch of different countries.

How do you prefer to spend your time off?
Usually relaxing with friends and watching sports or playing golf.

What is your favorite sport?
Basketball and baseball are probably my favorite to watch, but I really like watching any sport. More often I enjoy watching some of the greatest sports players more than any specific sport, so if LeBron James or Shohei Ohtani are playing I try and tune in.

What is your favorite quote?
Recently, I heard the quote "Don't be afraid of failure. This is the way to succeed," (LeBron James) and it has really stuck with me.

What is a TV show you like to re-watch a lot?
I watch a lot of different shows but my go to rewatch is definitely New Girl. It's my ultimate comfort show that I have probably seen way too many times.

What is your favorite movie?
It would probably depend on the genre. My go-to is usually a good thriller or dumb rom-com. I also really enjoy foreign films with Parasite and City of God being two of my favorites.

What is the best advice you've ever gotten?
I would say the best advice I have gotten is just to not worry too much about the little things because no one else will remember it besides you.

Do you have any pets?
I have two Ragdoll cats I recently adopted. There names are Chewy and Lola. The family I adopted them from didn't know the female cat was pregnant, so after a few weeks I ended up with six kittens which was both stressful and fun to deal with.
