After I left UD and FDU, I moved to LBI where I worked at a newspaper and learned to scuba dive--a hobby that has taken me all over the world. For years I taught scuba and wrote for dive and travel magazines. I even wrote a coffee table book about shipwrecks--one of my favorite subjects.
For the past 15 years I've lived in Bucks County, and I do corporate communications, marketing and computer-based training. I'm in the process of trying to sell my first novel--about a group of divers who discover an unidentified shipwreck in dangerously deep water. They say all first novels are at least partly autobiographical, and in this case, it's true.
When I hit 40, I had a midlife crisis and bought a horse. I don't get in the water so much anymore, but I have a little trail riding vacation almost every day. It's a good life. I'm looking forward to seeing everybody in November.

HiHo UDers!  How does one summarize 40 years?  I graduated from Tufts University in Boston in 1979 and hitch hiked out west and landed in Seattle WA.  In betwwen some travelling and short stints working in Reno and Philly, I have made Puget Sound my home ever since.  I love the green and the water and mountains.  It's also a fun, progressive place with folks who grew up all over living hear.  Some of my bestest friends happen to be from Philly (I can relate to them).  I am currently executive director of our local United Way, involved in promoting volunteerism, raising money for community impact and issues from early learning to homelessness.  I have two great kids (well, they are now, anyway, at ages 22 and 24) and am into art, gardening and home improvement.  I hope to attend the reunion this year and see many of you!  Come visit!

I am into the 7th yr of my 2nd marriage and have 2 girls from the 1st one. Shannon who is 29 and lives in Annandale NJ w my X. My youngest, who is not so young anymore, Nicole graduated from UCONN and is now a working for Yelp NY (yikes!!!). My husband was in a bad car accident 7 1/2 yrs ago and had 6 back surgeries which forced me to leave the salon that I was in and open a salon in my home. He needed me so this was the best alternative. It turns out that it was the best thing to do. I have a beautiful salon and I am my own boss. I simply love design,whether it be hair or fashion or home design. I do all three!! Some things never change,comforting isn't it?

Really glad to find this site. WOW. 30 YEARS!! I left Upper Dublin after my 11th grade and went on to a prep school, The Peddie School, but have always felt thet UDHS was my high school.

Did a stint at Penn State and found myself playing music for a living. That lasted 10 years or so. Got into telecommunications for the following 10 years or so.

Then, during a more adventurous time in October of 1988, I sold my house, bought a sailboat and left the Philly area for ports unknown. Didn't really have a sail-plan except to head South since it was becoming cold.

To make a LONG story short, 200 miles off the Eastern coast I found myself in a storm and sinking. The Coast Guard towed me into an inlet of North Carolina and I've been here since.

I have Kim (wife) and 2 boys (14 and 6). Continue to play in local bands and sink sailboats. Settled and happy.

Look forward to seeing you at the reunion
