Dr. Izzo grew up in the farming community of Vineland with his three brothers. They spent their summers working on the farm and swimming at the Jordan Lions Pool. He then became a Life Guard, Swim Instructor and later, Head Guard at the Jordan Lions Pool throughout his High School and University years.
Along with his interest in mathematics and the sciences, he also enjoys music. In his spare time he plays the guitar, drums, and piano. He also took a run at the trumpet in high school. Apologies to whoever may have heard him at the time.
Dr. Izzo volunteers in his community and at the Children’s Wish Foundation. The latter being very close to his heart. Every Christmas, while vacationing in Florida, Dr. Izzo volunteers at Give Kids the World in Orlando. He hopes to make a positive difference in children’s lives, the way others made a difference in his youngest brother’s life.
