I grew up in Huntington, Indiana; Glendale, Burbank and Turlock, California; and Philomath, Oregon. I received my High School Diploma from Huntington High School in Huntington, Indiana and my undergraduate BA degree in philosophy from Wabash College, also in Indiana. A Sloan Scholarship attendance at Wabash possible. I have two graduate degrees from Yale: a Bachelor of Divinity and a Masters in Religious Studies. My graduate work at Yale was supported by Woodrow Wilson and Danforth Fellowships. A Fulbright Scholarship allowed me to spend a year studying philosophy and theology at Eberhard-Karls Universitaet in Tuebingen, Germany.
Professionally, I have worked at all levels of government with a few years spent in the private sector. Most positions have been in the fields of education, employment, and training. I held local positions in New Haven, CT and Boston, MA, statewide positions in Utah and Colorado, and a national position with the National Governors Association in Washington, D.C. I have also been employed federally as Administrative Assistant to a Congressman and in positions with the U.S. Departments of Labor (U.S. Employment Service) and Education (Office of Vocational and Adult Education). I have carried out assignments for the Ford Foundation and/or Department of Labor (Manpower Administration) in San Francisco and Watts, CA; Las Vegas, NV; St. Louis, MO; Salt Lake City, UT; Akron and Cleveland OH; Chicago; IL, Jacksonville, FL; Greenville, MS.
