I am an Italian American who was born into a big family in New York City.  I moved to Pennsylvania in 1994 to a small town called Jim Thorpe. I began to work for my father’s constructing business at an early age and eventually became his partner.  I was raised in a Catholic family all my life but was introduced to Orthodoxy in October of 2006 through Saint Paul’s Fellowship of Labor.  Since then, I have been actively pursuing to understand the faith through reading, discussion, and service work through the trips.  With my previous knowledge of construction I am happy to use my skills to lead SPFL to tackle more advanced and higher skilled construction tasks as the head of construction.
