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
