After high school, attended Cornell University where I earned a B.S. in Communication. During my four years I ran track for two years and was later was smitten by the multimedia bug after taking a class on Interactive Multimedia.
During my senior year I met a girl on a blind date. Little did I realize that she would be the woman I would marry in 1994!
The job market was not very good in 1991, so decided to apply to graduate program at R.I.T. I enrolled in R.I.T. immediately after graduation from Cornell in 1991 and earned a M.S in Instructional Technology and an Advanced Certification in Multimedia in one year. During the one year in Rochester I had the opportunity to work as a desktop publisher designer.

Workplace
Started my career after grad school working for IBM Credit in Stamford CT. After a year left and went to work for an IT consulting firm in New Jersey for five years. Learned a lot of different technologies and managed to make a lot of connections at different firms in the North East. During my time as consultant also became a certified PowerBuilder Instructor which gave me the opportunity to travel around the US meeting a lot of interesting people. Left the consulting gig to work for a small securities lending technology firm located in White Plains, NY. In December 1998 the tech company was purchased by State Street Corporation, which I have been working at ever since.
As design is still my passion I have my own web/graphic design company specializing in developing web, print and identity solutions for non-profits and small companies.
