ts until I received my California teaching credential and taught Social Studies and Biology at Edison High School (Fresno). I attended Moss Landing Marine Laboratories for my graduate work. I worked overseas in Micronesia (Belau) and was a High School Principal for four years. When I returned to California I attended Law School and interned with the Orange County District Attorneys Office. I returned to teaching in Juvenile Hall and the County Jail and I now currently teach for Rancho Santiago Community College and administer the Jail Education Program for the Orange County Sheriffs Department Correctional Programs. I still surf and dive for fun. .
