While in high school, he studied a few trades, which has been advantageous for the do-it-yourselfer in him. He received an Associate’s degree in Respiratory Therapy and went on to PCO. He emphasized geriatrics/low vision and ocular disease. After graduation, he joined an ophthalmology practice in Baltimore and later joined Bayshore Eyecare in Prince Frederick. He also became part of a special pilot program to provide comprehensive eye care to a geriatric population in a nursing home setting.
