This is my second season as the Nederland Mining Museum Coordinator. Last season was my first work experience in a museum. I enjoyed learning and performing the various aspects of interpretation for museum visitors and program participants. I especially benefitted in my rookie year from the expertise and guidance of various Parks and Open Space personnel and volunteers. I was born in New York City and raised in northern New Jersey in a family of seven with four sisters and two brothers.

I served eight years on the Glencoe, IL Preservation Commission where he relocated and restored two 1890's victorian homes . Commercial preservation projects include the restoration of the Ziegfeld Building an 18,000-square foot gateway building and currently owns the historic Woodstock Stock Exchange. I'm interested in anything to do with the Switzerland Trail
