Year of OC Residence: 2011
Township of Residence: Chapel Hill
Zone of Residence:
Sex: Male
Ethnic Background: Caucasian
Community Activities/Organizational Memberships:
Frequent Carrboro restaurants and businesses including Weaver St. Market and Farmer
s Market. This is my first foray into getting involved officially with the Carrboro community.
Outside of the community and as part of graduate school I am a member of the American
Association for the Advancement of Sciences, the American Foundation for
Pharmaceutical Education, and a former member of the American Society for
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I was also a founding member and chairman of the
UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy Alumni Outreach Committee.
Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards:
None
Boards/Commissions applied for:
Human Relations Commission
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I have lived in Carrboro for nearly five years and I absolutely love this community. I care deeply
for the community that is Carrboro, North Carolina, and I would very much like to become more
involved in the town and community itself. I am currently a PhD student at UNC Chapel Hill and I
plan to stay in the area after I graduate. I am an honest person who lives with integrity and do
my best to come from a place of loving kindness and practicality when faced with decisions. I
love working with groups and committees to make my community a better place. For example, I
am a founding member and former chairman of the UNC School of Pharmacy Alumni Outreach
Committee: a committee that is designed to facilitate mentoring, networking, and information on
non-traditional roles for PhD students between current students and Alumni of the EsO—ll
IICln$ghQ<?I<?tPoCIrmCIgy—FLJrtb—rm<?r—,Jha\hb—JgClnumber of leadership positions in my
life that have required me to work with people, advise them on appropriate actions, and organize
events.A short list is: Chairman of Alumni Outreach Committee at UNC, Senior graduate
student mentor for undergraduate researchers, Community tutor, former executive committee

member of Phi Kappa Tau fraternity in Rochester NY, Member of student review committee for
UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy Strategic Plan.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
I would like to be appointed because I love Carrboro and I love the community that is Carrboro. I
am interested in the Human Relations Board because it offers a place to specifically address
matters pertaining to keeping/making the Carrboro community a safe, open, and understanding
place. I believe that my own personal experiences ill life and my passion for treating humans
with loving kindness will aid myself and the board in developing plans that will keep Carrboro the
accepting wonderful place that it is! I am interested in the Greenways Commission because I
love the outdoors and the greenways in this town and I want to do whatever I can to keep them
the wonderful, beautiful little bits of paradise hidden behind the houses that they are! My only
reasoning in preference of the Human Relations Board over the Greenways Commission is that
there appears to be more meetings and opportunities to interact with the board for Human
Relations relative to Greenways.

Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I am proud of my forty years experience in serving as staff member and director of
archaeological excavations in the Mediterranean. In doing so I became immersed in other
nations and other cultures, leading, in the case of Italy, to a brief stint as expert commentator on
the National Television (RAI). I believe that I represent the unprejudiced attitude of pagan
Greece and Roman toward the other, who is not the other, but only ourselves in different garb.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
There is a pressing need in America for following Emma Lazarus call to embrace the
downtrodden, which I define today as the pitiful women and children of Central America who
seek asylum with us. My mother was a third generation Irish girl in Boston, where being Irish
had been hardly better than being black in the states of the old confederacy. As a small child
during the Depression I listened to the cries for Social Justice on the Boston Common.

Boards/Commissions applied for:

Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
In my professional environment, I am part of one avenue that aims to eliminate bias (primarily
through education). My career development has included Racial Equity Institute training as well
as ongoing analysis of both systemic racial inequities and personal race development.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Because my work is done on a statewide level, I feel disconnected to the work being done in my
community to eliminate bias and discrimination; I believe this board would afford me the
opportunity to connect to Orange County on a deeper level.
