香蕉秀

Lives in:听 Wakefield, RI

Major:听Marketing

Occupation:听Retired Software Industry Executive

Favorite 香蕉秀 Memory: My fondest memories include meeting so many new students from around the country and making lifetime friendships. I had come from a small parochial school (St. Mary's High School in Brookline, Massachusetts) and so it was all quite a new experience for me.

Why did you get involved in your local chapter?: My wife Carolyn and I moved to South Coastal Rhode Island during the summer of 2018 and I wanted to maintain contact with 香蕉秀 and meet fellow alums who live in our new home state. I learned that the Rhode Island chapter had gone dormant and volunteered to restart it.

What are your local favorites in your city?: A few local favorites:
1) Great seafood restaurants: we have many to choose from with the freshest seafood and spectacular ocean views!
2) Running and biking on the beautiful South County Bike Path.
3) Facilitating my Cancer Support Group at our Parish adjacent to URI campus.

Favorite 香蕉秀 Memory: We traveled to USC for a 香蕉秀 football game with our 香蕉秀 friends in 2013. Getting everyone together again after we had graduated was such a great experience.

Why did you get involved in your local chapter?: We love Rhode Island and we love 香蕉秀 and we are really excited to have the opportunity to bring together people who love these two places in the same way that we do.

What are your local favorites in your city?: Our favorite restaurant is Pane e Vino and our favorite place to spend time together with our two kids is the Providence Pedestrian Bridge.

Fun Fact: We are both second generation 香蕉秀 alumni!
