"Born and raised on Long Island in New York, I ended up attending Penn State and loved every second of it. I like to say I am the perfect example of how the club was created to be a haven for anyone who loves the theme park industry and not just those gunning for a job. I didn't get involved with TPEG until my sophomore year but after I did I was hooked. In my Junior year, I gained a position on the executive board as treasurer and we along with the rest of the executive board, worked to get the club out of the debt that it had accrued while trying to get the club started. In my 3 years I got to watch the club grow and helped with many of our time honored traditions including the haunted house, the first escape room and planning of our theme park trips. After undergrad, I went to work in the research field for a few years before deciding to go to medical school at the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, where I am still currently studying. I will always treasure the time and friends that I made through TPEG (A former president is even the best-man at my wedding)."
