Hank Platshon

Co-Pilot
Hank was born just outside Portland, Oregon and spent his first year in Park City, Utah, where his love of the outdoors began! His favorite activity is chasing Scott and Lauren on skis. Now relocated to San Francisco, Hank spends his days sleeping in, chasing tennis balls at Marina Green and swimming in the bay. Not to mention he is a world-class snuggler!
