Born:
1968 Date of Eagle Scout Award: 1986 Date of HS Graduation:
Greece Athena 1986
Anticipated Plans After Graduation or where did you
graduate from and what are you doing now: I studied aerospace
engineering in college and obtained a Ph.D. from Rensselaer Polytechnic
Institute in 1995. I currently work at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
in California as a Physicist.
Project Description: For my Eagle project I
worked to restore one of the parks near Lake Ontario. We painted buildings,
landscaped, and cleaned. It was great to have the town provide so many
resources for my project (you just have to ask).
Favorite Camping Experience: I enjoyed most
of the campouts. Massawepie was always unique. But I think most of my stories
go back to the time me and Doug Herrmann got dumped into a freezing river while
canoeing. We were in the water for a long time due to strong currents, and we
turned a deep shade of blue. I forget who paddled us toward shore (it was Len
Angie or Mr Herrmann), but I vividly remembering him paddling as though our
lives depended on it. We were hanging on to the side of his canoe as I watched
the wood ore literally bend like a soggy noodle each time he paddled because he
put so much force into it. I think it shook him up more than us, even though we
could have died. Thanks by the way!
