The Penn State Alumni Association

What’s been happening:

From Happy Valley, I relocated to Newark, Delaware to work in J.P.Morgan's Management Trainee Program and ultimately, in JPM's IT department. During the early years with JPM, I especially enjoyed weekly train rides to Manhattan to work as a Voice Telephony project manager with the Wall Street team. I eventually enjoyed travel around the U.S., Latin America, and to Singapore. I am currently a Vice President on the Voice Telephony Automation team, now with 16 years tenure with the company. On the personal side, in 1996, I was thrilled see my sister, Julie, marry an old-friend, Jim, from childhood. I was equally as thrilled when their daughter, Lauren, was born in 2002; then I received the ultimate honor of being named as her Godfather. Reminiscent of my days playing in "Maurae Amorae" at PSU fraternities and bars, I've continued drumming in bands across eastern PA with guitarist (and fellow-PSU grad), Matt Skomra. Mom is now retired after many years in the world of childcare, and Dad is (after 27 years with Bethlehem Steel) enjoying his current job as a Highway Safety Inspector contracted by Penndot. In 2009, I married my sweetheart, Christine, and we are in the process of finding a new home in PA. I look back at my PSU days with great pride and joy. I know that I am very blessed to have had the opportunity to attend PSU and to have lived those experiences. WE ARE!...
