A bit about me
I was born in Little Italy in New York City, started elementary school in the Bronx, and when my family moved to Connecticut, I attended Sandy Hook Elementary. My father worked in a metal casting foundry all his life, and my mom worked part time as a bank teller. I worked my way through college and earned a BA in chemistry from Western Connecticut State.
Kathy and I met at work in the local grocery store, and we were married in 1980 two weeks before moving to Texas where I attended Texas A&M University and earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1985.
We have two adult children, both of whom are now living in New Hampshire, and are expecting our first grandchild later this year!
My 91 year old mother moved up from Florida in 2016 to be closer to us – we lease her an apartment also in Portsmouth.
