Richard's Story
After graduating from Seton in 1971 I attended MCC and ASU, receiving a BS from ASU in 1975. I received a MA from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, Syracuse University in 1990. I started my career with the US Department of Agriculture in 1974 and retired in 2012 with 38 years of service. During my career I resided in the states of New Mexico, Arizona, California, New York, Massachusetts, Colorado and Maryland. I finished my career in Washington D.C. as a member of the Senior Executive Service in the office of the Secretary of Agriculture.

el to Arizona at least one time per year. When I was young I was an age group swimmer competing for the Mesa Aquatics Club and later for the Chandler Swimming Team. I took swimming up again after retirement to deal with health issues my doctor said were looming on the horizon. I belong to US Masters Swimming, practicing with the local team regularly and swimming in meets occasionally.
I am married to Christine Langr, a graphic designer and have 3 children and 3 grandchildren. We reside in Catonsville, Maryland, a suburb of Baltimore. Catonsville somehow reminds me very much of Chandler "back in the day". It has a small town feel on the outskirts of a big city.
