Bio: I am the youngest of 5 children brought up in a traditional Irish Catholic home. Obese, bespectacled, and marginalized, I hated school but loved learning as a youngster. As a teenager I became an alcoholic and drug addict, achieved local notoriety for crashing my first car into a house while on my learner's permit, joined a cult, and barely graduated high school. Later I bolstered my already impressive academic record when Union County Community College dismissed me academically.
My sneaking suspicion that something was wrong with my life was confirmed when a new voice made itself heard. In my head that is. While the psychiatrists diagnosed me as paranoid schizophrenic, it turns out that if I don't do cocaine, I don't hear voices.
I was loosed from the booby hatch December 24th, 1986 and with the help of God and a host of 12 step programs I have remained clean and sober ever since.
In 1995 I received my B.S. in Psychology with a second major in History from the University of Pittsburgh. I am single with no children and live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
