I was born and raised in Meriden, CT. I moved to Melbourne, FL to go to school at Florida Institute of Technology. At Florida Tech, I studied Computer Science, hosted a television show, and was an active member of Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity.
After school, I began my career as a software engineer working on NASA’s Space Shuttle Program. At the same time I completed a graduate program, in Systems Simulation, at the University of Central Florida. At the end of 2010, I packed up my car and moved out to Colorado. Once there, I worked on a variety of cool programs at a couple of large aerospace companies. Currently, I’m working on a spacecraft that will one day bring humans to Mars.
I enjoy spending time with my wife, son, and dog; craft beer, hiking, grilling, traveling, and taking pictures along the way.

Thanks for the like. UCF, eh? My son went there, from 2009 to 2015 (psychology major). He’s in Denver now. Cheers!
