One-Week Change of Focus

About the Contrarian

I’ve enjoyed two marvelous careers: first as a teacher of English and theatre (and, occasionally, psychology); and second as executive director of the North Eastern Ohio Education Association (NEOEA).

As is perhaps obvious, I’m still figuring out what I want to be when I grow up.
