Ruling Elder Emeritus, Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC). Currently retired after a thirty-year career in operations and operations management with Southern California Edison Company, followed by fifteen-years in the medical device industry, after which I was privileged to serve nine years as the Principal of Covenant Christian Academy in Westminster, CA. Continue to volunteer and support the church and school, enjoying a counseling and mentoring ministry.
In the mid-80’s to 90’s while still employed with Edison, my hobby in photography turned into a part-time business, Dominion Photography, photographing BMX racers around the country at American Bicycle Association (ABA) events. This helped pay for my travels with my youngest son Jon who was racing BMX bicycles at the time. The business was operable for 11 years and included wedding and portrait photography. Still have my equipment and enjoy taking pictures of family and friends, and travels with my wife.
