Recent professional activities & accomplishments: In 2006, I co-founded the Quit Doc Research and Education Foundation with our classmate Kirk Voelker.

My son, Zachary, is a senior in high school and is currently applying to colleges throughout Florida. Soon, the nest will be empty... Other news/activities/hobbies: I am currently training for my first attempt at a half-marathon in Fort Lauderdale next February. I am still exploring amateur photography, so look for me on Instagram. Favorite memory of medical school and/or Gainesville: The thing I think about the most were the very clever theme parties that our class managed to pull together. Christmas parties, Art Shows and Beer Bashes, Biker parties. My favorite Gainesville night spot was the Purple Porpoise, and I am very sad that it is no longer on University Avenue. Favorite faculty member or advisor: My faculty advisor in Pediatrics, Dr. Joel Andres, is far and away my favorite faculty member. I understand he recently retired, so I will not be able to pop in on him during this reunion.

Recent professional activities & accomplishments: After 19 years in private practice Hematology / Oncology I decided it was time to move on and try a different career. I resigned from my practice and enrolled back into college to obtain my Illinois secondary school teaching license. This fall I will begin teaching High School Biology at De La Salle Institute, an inner city Chicago Catholic School. I am looking forward to the challenges of making a difference in someone's life though a way completely different from medicine. Unfortunately, being the "new teacher" at school, I will not be able to make it to the reunion......so, I will have to see everyone at our 30th reunion to let you know how it all turns out. Family news: -Nydia (COM class of 1990) is now working for Seasons Hospice as a palliative care MD in the Western Chicago suburbs. Loves her job. -Jim (21 years old) is a senior at Lawrence University (Appleton, WI) studying music, spending a semester in London, and planning on graduate school for music therapy. -Sean (18 years old) is a freshman at Purdue University in their engineering program. Plans on majoring in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering. -Amos (9 year old family Beagle) is now happy to have the house to himself! Favorite memory of medical school and/or Gainesville: A great medical education and a lot of fun with good friends

Favorite memory of medical school and/or Gainesville: Skits! Still cannot watch Monty Python, Family Vacation, A Chorus Line or The Wizard of Oz without thinking fondly of our twisted renditions and the esteemed faculty and house staff we parodied!
