Current activity: After leaving Wayne State University in 1995, I segued from immunology to microbiology for 3 years while working on product research and development at Difco Laboratories. However, when Difco was sold in 1998, I changed not only my job but my career path. I joined STATPROBE as a Data Coordinator, developing databases and cleaning up data for clinical drug trials. Since then, my responsibilities have changed to emphasize the writing of computer programs to support the management of the clinical data.

Personal: I still live in my lifelong home in Hazel Park. I have now been making the 50 miles each way commute to Ann Arbor for 9 years.
