One cool October evening in the early 80's I was born in Manhattan.  

I spent my early years in the shadow of Shea Stadium (remember Shea?), in Flushing, Queens, before moving to upstate NY (Pine Bush, NY, more specifically).  Ultimately, I ended up beginning the family legacy by starting college at Binghamton University (3 of my 4 other siblings are alums/current students).  After a mere 9 years, I got a BS in Biochemistry with a History minor, and went to SUNY Upstate Medical University.  After 4 years there, including 9 months in Watkins Glenn, NY doing a rural medicine AI, I noted the dearth of quality radiology services in rural environments, prompting my current quest for radiologic immortality.  After one last hurrah of a transitional year, also in Binghamton, NY at Wilson Memorial Hospital, I found myself here in the Pioneer Valley.

When not writing bios for the radiology residency website, I enjoy watching football (er, soccer) and blowing my money traveling to England to watch football (to my wife's chagrin).  I also expend a certain amount of time looking for Grolsch beer on tap (virtually impossible to find in the US, I've found).
