What’s been happening:

I graduated PSU May 1998 and transferred to The Naval Hospital at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in 29 Palms CA. I spent 3 years there in the dessert. During that time my 1st son, Branden, was born. I traveled all over the west coast from Las Vegas to San Francisco and San Diego to Wyoming. My favorite places were Hawaii, the Grand Canyon, Lake Havasu and Yosemite National Park. My follow on Assignment was to Portsmouth Naval Medical Center in Portsmouth VA. I spent four years there, 7 months of which I completed a deployment with the Expiditionary Medical Facility at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait. The greatest memories from that area was meeting my wife Michelle while moonlighting at Chesapeake General Hospital. In May 2005 I began graduate school at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda MD. I graduated from Nurse Anesthesia school in December 2007. My residency portion was completed in San Diego CA. Michelle and I were married in San Diego and we welcomed in our set of triplets on January 3, 2008. We had two girls, Ava Grace and Olivia Severa and a son, Carl Joseph. It is hard to believe they are already 17 months old. In May 2008 we were transferred to our current duty station at the National Naval Medical Center Bethesda MD where I am a practicing staff Nurse Anesthetist and assistant Chief CRNA.
