Facts and Fun Stuff about Ken and Nancy
(Click on underlined words for a photo)

We live in Needham, MA, which is about 14 miles from Boston.  We are just a stone's throw from Babson College and the town of Wellesley. We've lived in Needham since 1992, the year we were married. Needham is where Nancy grew up and where her mom, Irene, still lives.  In fact, the street where we live is the same street where Nancy's parents bought their first house! 

I (Ken) was born and raised in New Jersey. So, how did a Jersey boy meet a fair-haired maiden from Massachusetts? It turns out that Nancy lived in Summit, NJ for several years while working in Manhattan. We met on a blind date one blustery day in February 1989 and, as they say, the rest is history. 

Fun stuff about Ken

I'm an identical twin. My twin brother and sister-in-law, David and Irma, live in New Hampshire.  I am the oldest twin by five minutes. Not a lot, but just enough to make me the "senior guy". I have a younger brother, Stephen, who lives with his wife, Rita (aka RJ) and their daughter, Emma, in Richmond, VA.  My mother, Jean, lives in Short Hills, NJ. I also have a step-sister, Jinger, who lives in California with her husband, David. 

I graduated from Seton Hall University with a BA in Communications Arts.  After Seton Hall, I attended the Chubb Institute for Computer Technology, where I was trained in computer programming. I've worked in the financial services industry in Boston for many years. I love Boston and never grow tired of walking around town enjoying the historic sights!

When I am not working in Boston, I enjoy taking care of our home in Needham and working in the yard. I am forever trying to get the lawn to look better than the year before.  I also am a "car guy", which means I like taking care of my car.. I've taken several home repair courses at a local technical school and enjoy putting my skills to use around the house.  My dream is to spend a day with the crew of  This Old House! 

Fun stuff about Nancy

Nancy was actually born in NJ when her dad was on a temporary assignment at Bell Labs. But since she spent most of her childhood in Massachusetts, I'm afraid she doesn't qualify as a Jersey girl !

Nancy went to Mount Holyoke College and, after working a few years, went back to earn her MBA at Harvard University. She has lived and worked in Washington, D.C., and New York city.  She supports a business women's networking Internet site. 

Nancy is an exercise nut.  Well, "nut" seems like a strong term but I don't know what else to call a person who gets up at 4:30 AM and walks in the dark to her gym to attend an aerobics class before the sun comes up!  She loves to exercise and seems to do enough of it for two people, which is a good thing as I have not been doing my share lately. Her dream job is to be a personal trainer. Maybe someday she can become a personal trainer and I could be her client!
