Brian went on to work for public accounting firms, private corporations, and governmental agencies in Buffalo, Houston, Philadelphia, and Newark, Delaware. He held CPA licenses in New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Known for his sharp wit, Brian was brilliant, a free spirit, and known for his larger-than-life personality and love of reading and debate. Brian was a member of a number of local rock bands in his younger days and developed enduring close friendships, including those with Robert Bucella, Robert Drake, Edward Schubauer, and Christopher Walker. Brian was a member of the Central Park Players in his youth, but his standout role that classmates continue to recall was the lead in a local production of the musical "Tommy".
