Life My Spouse My wife Elaine teaches Chemistry, Advanced Chemistry, and Honors Chemistry at Shaler Area High School. My Pets We have a parakeet. Our beagle tessie passed away due to cancer in 2007. My Kids They were born 3 years minus 3 days apart and in their baby pictures they look like twins. Elaine Marie was born September 11, 1991. She is in the North Hills Marching Band. Maria was born September 8, 1994. Both Elaine and Maria are in the Gifted and Talented Education ( GATE ) program in the North Hills School District. Elaine played softball for 3 years ( I coached her in the first year ) and had played soccer for 3 years. Maria also plays an instrument in the North Hills Elementary Band. I have met a lot of people in North Hills because I am a "Band Parent", the parent of two atheletes, and a former softball coach for North Hills Athletic Association. My Job I teach information science part-time at Community College of Beaver County. It is very interesting because the information science field changes so quickly. In recent years I have been teaching advanced network classes, advanced programming classes, Microsoft Office 2007, Office 2003, Office XP and Office 2000 classes, and introductory courses. I taught computer science at Pitt for 21 years part-time. For 5 years at Pitt I taught lectures of up to 150 students and supervised 10 computer lab Teaching Assistants. I am considering starting on my phD within the next 5 years. I care about all of my high school classmates. Aside from class reunions, I have only seen a few classmates around town....Expand for more
