I am a board certified health physicist, currently employed by The Boeing Company as chairperson of the enterprise-wide Radiation Safety Technical Committee.
I took my undergraduate degree in physics at Reed
College. After that I spent a couple of years studying physics
and education at Washington State University.
I served as an instructor for the introductory physics labs.
During that time I obtained a teaching certification from the State of
Washington in Physics and Mathematics.
I taught high school physics and mathematics for four years.
During that time I earned a Master's degree in Science Curriculum and Instruction
from the University of Washington.
I graduated from the Illinois Institute of Technology Master's in Health Physics program. During my studies I passed both the certification exams given by the American Board of Health Physics. I was the first student from the IIT program to do so.
I hold black belts in Judo and Aikido, and also practice Tai Ji Quan. I work out and instruct at the Enumclaw Ki Haku Judo Club. My Tai Chi instructor was Ronald Jorgensen.
I live with my children Gerard and Brita, and our dog Billy.
