About Me

Al DeVito
I spent my career in the computer software business and experienced the joy of working in an area that has changed the way we live. I retired to the Vineyard in 2002 and devoted a fair amount of time to civic affairs and the local Habitat affiliate. Eventually, in 2006 I went back to work as the Finance Director of a non-profit focused on providing affordable, rental housing to the low income elderly and the low income disabled of the Vineyard. Now, I've retired for a second time and moved to Duncaster, a continuing care retirement community in Connecticut.
