Vitae:

Jonathan Ryan Regina was born on June 6, 1977 in Bethlehem, PA to his parents Gail M. and Lawrence A. Regina. He grew up in the Pocono Mountains with his two younger brothers, Jeffrey and Jeremy, as well as his wife-to-be, Merideth. He graduated with honors in the spring of 1995 from Pleasant Valley High School, where he was the President of his class and captain of the football team. Jon began at Lehigh University in the fall of 1995 as a student athlete, taking both engineering classes and playing football. During his undergraduate career, he was inducted into several honor societies and was honored with the Cyril John Osborn Award, which is given to a student who exhibits outstanding promise for a successful career in Materials Science and Engineering. During this time he also played on two championship football teams, one of which went undefeated in the regular season and took part in the NCAA I-AA National Playoffs (1998).

In the spring of 1999, Jonathan graduated with a Bachelors of Science Degree in Materials Science and Engineering. He entered the Materials Science and Engineering Department at Lehigh University as a graduate student in the fall of 1999. On June 30, 2001, Jon married his long time friend and high-school sweetheart Merideth Jane Skinner. Jon received a M.S. in Materials Science and Engineering from Lehigh University in January 2002. Currently, he is pursuing his Ph.D. on the weldability and high-temperature corrosion resistance of Fe-Al-Cr weld overlay claddings.
