Hi Old Friends ! After attending college at CSUF in Orange County, I headed back to the midwest (Chicago) for graduate school. I continued east to New Jersey when I landed at position at Rutgers Medical School. After seven years there..... East Stroudsburg University (located in NE PA) gave me an offer I couldn't refuse and while there, I directed the MPH graduate program, the Public Health Certificate Program, and the Institute for Public Health Research and Innovation. Worked there for 25 years. Looking for a career capstone... I moved to the Mountain West... In 2016, I joined the faculty as a Professor of Public Health working in the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine at the University of Utah School of Medicine. Starting in mid-2019, my position will phase into 3/4 time eventually retiring in 2023. I continue to golf, have picked up guitar again in this stage of my life, and coordinate music and art festivals that have a mental health education component.
Married to Deirdre (HS English teacher; now retired) since 1989. We have two children, Lindsay (age 31, as of this post) who is an assistant professor of photography at Valdosta State U in Georgia, and Ryan (age 27, as of this post) who is an Ensign in the navy, and stationed in Japan.
