I have to say, I’ve enjoyed these updates. Good on you Class of 1985.

I’ve managed to stay somewhat local over the past 40 years. I live out in Bridgewater with my wife Maria and my two sons Connor and Lucas. I work in Berkeley Heights at Governor Livingston High School as a social studies teacher and coach and have been there for the last 24 years.

My wife Maria just retired from her work in marketing and sales from Underwriter Labs (UL). She is thoroughly enjoying her first months of retirement and I am insanely jealous. My son Connor has a men’s clothing boutique in Asbury Park called New Hour Clothing. It’s awesome! Go check it out! My younger son Lucas is a bit of an entrepreneur and is focused on building his own media company. Much of our life is centered around Long Beach Island these days and we get down there as often as we can.

I still see a number of my own Summit crew. Pete Richardson and Ed Weizer are good golf buddies and from time to time I’ve seen Tim Shanahan, Brendan Gibbons, Dave Bauhs, Paul Verderber and have heard from a few others over the years. So the Summit connection is still there and I am extremely grateful for that.
