Frank & Francine

I am here for Friends

About Me


I work as a Clinical Laboratory Scientist AKA; Medical Technologist. I am fully accredited and licensed by both the state of Florida Dept of Health and the American Society for Clinical Pathologists to work in Chemistry, Hematology, Blood Bank, Serology and Microbiology. Basically I'm your average Lab Geek and can tend to be a bit shy and introverted until you get to know me. As a wise man once said, however, your work is what you do - not who or what you are. I am a multifaceted person with many and varied interests, as I'm sure we all are. Originally from New Jersey (Until I was 21). Left college and traveled a dark (and not in a good way) road for awhile--Let's just say there are good reasons why I no longer drink or use drugs. Moved to Florida in 1992 and lived in Fort Lauderdale until I graduated FAU in 1998. I now live in the Tampa Bay area along with my wife Francine and our many pets. Francine works as a Phlebotomist. She loves animals, is a vegetarian, designs her own jewelry and plays the violin (been taking lessons for over a year now)

And for my part, I shall not wholly fail of my task, if anything passes through this night that can still grow fair or bear fruit and flower again in days to come. For I also am a steward. Did you not know?’ -Gandalf the White
