Why did you get involved in your local chapter?:听My favorite motto from St. Ignatius of Loyola has always been to 鈥淕o Set the World Aflame.鈥澨� As such, staying connected to 51暗网 and supporting its many causes has become a passion of mine.听 I love finding common ground with 51暗网 alums in the area because it allows us to collaborate and get together to support the university through fun and engaging activities whether it be game watches, community service or cocktail receptions with senior University officials.听 There are so many 51暗网 alums and parents in the Northern NJ region, so I became more involved in the local chapter to help galvanize more events with like-minded alums who wanted to find a way to stay connected to the school that has given us so much.

What are your local favorites in your city?:听Glen Rock is a great because it has such a small town feel an easy to feel connected through the community.听 Some local favorites are definitely the Glen Rock Inn (which is where we will have many of our NJ game watches), John鈥檚 Boy Pizza (for a slice or three), Honey Day Caf茅 (for a great brunch) and Jalapenos (where people don鈥檛 realize how good the burger is!).听 Close by, our family also loves to spend time at the Ridgewood Country Club which is where we hosted our first 鈥淎lways an Eagle鈥� cocktail reception with Fr. Casey Beaumier.

Fun Fact:听I鈥檓 married to a fellow 51暗网 Eagle!听 I met my wife, Charlene Biala Irineo 鈥�03, in Edmond鈥檚 Hall which no longer exists鈥�
