Kevin's Story
Life
After graduating from CCHS in 1979, I studied accounting at Allentown Business School (now Lehigh Valley College). Upon graduation in 1981, I moved to Rapid City, SD for one year...a lost year of sorts.
I returned to Pennsylvania in 1982 and studied Management at Penn State. I received my bachelor's degree in 1984. I worked in retail until 1987. One of my accounting professors from ABS asked me if I ever thought of teaching. I jumped at the opportunity in April 1987 and spent 22 years with the school. Unfortunately, the school announced its closing. I continued teaching as an adjunct history professor with LCCC, Colorado Tech Online, and the University of Phoenix.

5 years, I finally went back for my master's degree at Lehigh University, this time in History. Why history? It was my first love and the only subject I truly enjoyed throughout elementary and high school. In April of 2009, I started my current job as Dean of Education with the McCann School of Business in Allentown.
I'm happily married, this despite her being a 1979 Holy Name alumnus. Our oldest, Regina, swam at Trinity College in Hartford, CT, our middle child, Dan, is a junior baseball player at Cornell in Ithaca, NY, and the youngest, Audrey, is a junio in high school. Regina is currently fielding offers for a PhD program in history.
Time sure flies.
Excelsior!
