Started Penn State main in Geology and 5 years later ended with a BS in Mineral Economics First job was doing Nuclear Containment vessel construction management for Pittsburgh Des Moines Steel on Neville Island where I met my lovely bride. After 3 Mile Island, which halted nuclear construction, went to work for Westinghouse Mass Transit in sales. Good old circle bar w (W) paid for my Masters in Industrial Engineering but sales is easy to get into and out of and out I was after 5 years.  Worked in sales for Dravo Material Handling and when Dravo died worked to for Allegheny Plastics selling a Thermo Plastic Pickle Tanks to the metal finishing industry.  Decided to part ways with the manufacturing sector and became a Certified Network Engineer.  Have been at St Clair Hospital over 15 years, am a Senior Systems Analyst but actually work for Allscripts.

 

Been an impartial dad I have the two smartest, best looking, fun daughters a father can ask for which is a good thing because my lovely bride moved out a year ago. The oldest (19) had followed my footsteps to Penn State but has fared far better than I. The youngest (15) plays volleyball for Chartiers Valley High School. Friends won’t let me sit around the house (which is good because I was getting so big I could sit around a house) so they have me doing Zumba, Yoga, Basketball and seasonally sailing or skiing. Life is good
