After returning to the United States, I attended high school in Hershey, PA, where my high school class voted me “Best Artist.” I studied drawing and painting at the State University of New York at Binghamton. However, I selected a “more practical” career path, with a focus on Sociology, Philosophy and Psychology. Later, these interests led to a master’s degree in Counseling at Gallaudet University, followed by a doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Antioch University New England.
I worked for more than 35 years as a clinical psychologist, specializing in neuropsychology, disability evaluations, and services to the deaf community. When the Covid-19 pandemic made it difficult to continue to provide in-person services, I decided to retire from my psychology practice.
