motorcycle riding, and dog rescue outside of work.

 

Some of my fondest memories trace back to my childhood playing sports at Live
Oak Park in Temple City, California – memories I cherish and love sharing with
others. I have pages on this website devoted to Little League Baseball and Pop
Warner Football.

I served in the U.S. Air Force and lived in beautiful places like Aspen, CO, and
Honolulu, HI. Since 1985, I’ve called Orange County home. It’s where I’ve built
my life, surrounded by loved ones and enjoying the sunny California lifestyle.
