He teaches Creative Writing, Composition and Poetry during the school year. (Paints houses and pitches mulch in the summer time.) He is the proud father of a nine year old boy named Ethan and a member of the acoustic "lit-rock" project called "Burnt Norton." He founded the Drown Writers' Series (an open forum for the presentation of original creative works) on Lehigh's campus in 1998. Last Spring, with a number of talented friends, he performed his spoken word/multimedia production called "Talking Book" in the Black Box Theater, Bethlehem, PA.
