I've been in college for almost 50 years, and have been at Whitman for over 25 years. Just when it seems like I've seen it all, I am presented with a new challenge. This constant process of challenge and renewal is partly why I love my job. Currently I am Director of Counseling and Health Services and an Associate Professor of Psychology. Before Whitman I was at Stanford where I was the Director of training in their counseling center and a part-time faculty member. I received my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Stanford in 1972. After hours, my life is filled with my wife, three children, skiing, being on Walla Walla's School Board, and sailing. Ask me about any of these and I will talk forever.
