I grew up in upstate NY about 50 minutes outside of NYC. I received my B.S. in mechanical engineering. Early in my career I designed various systems for gas fired power plants and now I'm the VP at a small firm which designs the MEP systems for high rise building throughout the 5 boroughs of NYC. I tended bar throughout my college career which stretched form Arizona State to NJIT. My only time on stage was in a 5th grade production where I played the lead role of Santa Claus. My performance was bold and memorable. I was afraid of being type cast so I decided to take time off only to reemerge when the time was right.

I'm a hands on guy. I can run a calculator with the best of them but I can also get behind the controls of an excavator. I worked at a family plumbing construction company through out my life which enabled me to learn a diverse array of skills and gain a wealth of knowledge. I'm technically familiar with the operation of large gas fired power plants as well as how to mix a perfect martini. I'm a gentleman who likes to get his hands dirty.
