Mr. Treser was born near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1945. He received his bachelor of arts degree in history from Thiel College in 1967, and served three years in the United States Army as an artillery survey specialist, an education specialist and a personnel specialist. In 1971 he began his career in environmental health as an environmental health inspector with the Allegheny County Health Department in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Steady promotions followed over the next four years until 1975, when as an environmental health supervisor, he went on leave to obtain a Master of Public Health degree at the University of Michigan. In 1976 he returned to the Allegheny County Health Department and was promoted to environmental health administrator. There he developed a comprehensive training program for new environmental health employees. In 1980, he accepted a position as Lecturer in Environmental Health with the University of Washington's Department of Environmental Health to manage a continuing competency education system for environmental health personnel.

Chuck teaches in both the undergraduate program and the school-wide extended MPH degree program. He is an active participant in the University of Washington’s Northwest Center for Public Health Practice – the organizational nexus within the School of Public Health & Community Medicine for connecting the academic pursuits of the school with the needs of the Public Health practice community. He has also participated in a national effort to revise the basic housing inspection manual for EH practitioners, and is the principal investigator on a cooperative agreement between the Association of Environmental Health Academic Programs (AEHAP) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention designed to improve environmental health practice through promoting and strengthening environmental health academic programs.  Chuck is a Diplomate in the American Academy of Sanitarians.
