Outside the Office
Bruce and his wife are adventurous “foodies” who are equally fanatical about cooking and eating.
They enjoy taking cooking classes together and studied under world-class chef Sandy D’Amato at Good Stock Farm Cooking School in Hatfield, Massachusetts. The couple also enjoy raising and training golden retrievers. Their current goldens, Rusty and Baxter, have their own Instagram account: “browndogwhitedog.”
Bruce adds the final topping to his dish.
