I was born and raised in Dorchester, Massachusetts. I left home moving to Los Angeles at 18 years old and in a few years, I would move north to San Francisco. By some fluke, I came to Austin, Texas in 1972. I somewhat grew up and settled down here. I earned a B.A. in Psychology and a M.S. in Urban Planning atThe University of Texas at Austin. I completed a masters thesis titled Impact of The Music Entertainment Industry on Austin, Texas in 1983 which has had a significant impact on this community. My ideas and work have been adopted and borrowed all over the world.
I am a lively senior citizen who enjoys life thoroughly. I am having more fun than I have ever had.
