I was raised in Hackensack, New Jersey, where I worked as a dispatcher at Purolator Courier Corp. When I moved to California, I took a job as a route salesman for Sparkletts Water Co. where I worked for many years. I then worked with the elderly as a bus driver for seven years before coming to Soka, where I worked as a shuttle driver. As a shuttle driver, I enjoyed getting to know the students. I am now currently with the Public Safety Department.
