I am a native New Yorker born in the NYC borough of Queens but raised on Long Island. I spent most of my adult life in the Capital District (Albany-Troy-Schenectady) where I went to college. I am currently an avionics systems engineer living in the Saint Louis, Missouri metro area working from home. Besides the Capital District and the NYC metro area, I have lived or worked in the following metro areas: Dayton OH, Los Angeles CA, Buffalo NY, Rockford IL, Hartford CT/Springfield MA.
