About Me:
Outside of my business career, I enjoy a widely varied assortment of activities and pursuits. I am active in a number of civic organizations, including the Harvard Business School Club of Connecticut, Harvard Club of Northern Connecticut, President's College at the University of Hartford, World Affairs Council, and MIT Enterprise Forum.
As a volunteer member of WWUH Radio 91.3 FM, a public alternative radio station operated as a community service by the University of Hartford, I serve as a classical music announcer. I was the producer and host of "What You Will" — the Friday edition of "Evening Classics" — from May 2003 until May 2007. My program was focused on twentieth-century and contemporary chamber music, as well as music for solo instrument and voice. During the course of these more than 200 broadcasts, virtually all of the major string quartet cycles composed in the twentieth-century were played on WWUH Radio. There is probably no other music program on radio that can make a similar claim in the exploration of this engaging and sometimes challenging music.

Who I Want to Meet:
