Chad met his wife Lindsey at Texas Tech University. They are the proud parents/owners of their dogs Jewels, Belle, Ava and Kate.  In his time away from the office, you will often find him at his farm in North Central Kansas, where they grow corn, milo, wheat and soybeans.  Chad and Lindsey are avid hunters and enjoy experiencing the great outdoors.
