Summary
- I am a retired licensed physician, triple Board-certified in anatomic, clinical and forensic pathology, having enjoyed my initial professional years as an on-service associate clinical professor, followed by my second-career avocation as a forensic pathologist (Assistant State & County Medical Examiner). I am proud to say that, my refusal to compromise my integrity, led to my being criminally framed as a whistle blower, that was subsequently expunged, with those responsible duly punished. My forte was active participation at all violent scenes and meaningful forensic correlations as my work product. I have been blessed with my wonderful wife of 57 years (she is my rock) who thrives in her art creations, our two extraordinary adult children and two wonderful grandchildren. I have also been blessed with good health, having passed my mid eighties and still actively consult.
