The Nittany Lion Alum continued his academic pursuits by attending Central Connecticut State University where he completed a master’s degree in Biological Sciences. Between undergrad and graduate school, two years of service in the United States Peace Corps Ghana, West Africa proved to be a life-changing adventure.
