I was born and raised in South San Francisco.

At the age of 18, I heard and responded to the truth of the gospel, salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and Him alone.

I met my wife, Kathleen, my best friend, shortly thereafter and we were married in 1983. We have six wonderful children and three abundantly wonderful grandchildren (praying for more).

I served in law enforcement for 33 years as Kathleen had the more challenging job of serving our children at home as a home school mom, always seeking to be a Proverbs 31 servant of our Lord.

I began teaching the Bible here in Vacaville more than 30 years ago in a children’s church class and have been blessed to continue teaching His word and seeking to shepherd His flock as He directs. It is a blessing to serve here at Faith Community Church.
