Personal Background

In his free time, Tyler enjoys spending time with his wife, Heather, and their two young sons, Parker and Landon. They reside in Charlotte, where life these days is filled with the fun (and chaos) that comes with parenting young kids. Heather and Tyler are always on the move, chasing after the boys and shuttling Parker to baseball games and tae kwon do classes, while Landon, though too young for sports himself, is already his brother’s biggest fan from the sidelines. When the rare quiet moment comes around, Tyler enjoys watching sports, working toward becoming a bourbon connoisseur, and firing up the grill for a steak or burger night with family and friends.
