Jimmy's career and interests center on creating, developing and/or managing health care and special education programs for folks with neurologic conditions and developmental challenges, as well as working in partnership with family carers and lay advocacy associations around the world to advance their causes of professional education and public awareness.

In Special Education he's taught in classrooms and students' homes, supervised teachers and programs; and taught graduate-level classes in Child Development, Behavior Management, instructional Programming and teaching self-care skills. In Healthcare, I've managed programs and worked as a nursing home administrator. Today I work at Tewksbury Hospital here in Massachusetts as Director of Huntington's Disease Services.

Most recently Jimmy's focus has been on the care of folks and families touched by Huntington's Disease in home, hospital, nursing home and assisted living settings.
