His educational background is in water resource management. He spent six years working as a commercial fisheries observer on the Bering Sea and the Aleutian Islands. Before transitioning into Medicare, he also worked for U.S. Fish and Wildlife on Lake Champlain’s sea lamprey control project in Vermont and New York.
