When he is not focused on real estate, Kerry can be found enjoying the great outdoors or playing hockey with his wife Jennifer and two daughters, Claire and Margaux. Kerry is involved with numerous non-profit organizations including the president of the Steamboat Springs Youth Hockey Association, president of the Steamboat Mountain Village, member of the Rotary Club of Steamboat Springs and past president of the Steamboat Springs Chamber.
