Greetings from Southern Orange County in Sunny California. I enjoy many aspects of Amateur Radio, but mostly community service and helping others to discover our hobby.

Emergency communications service is my first priority. I currently serve as Radio Officer and Emergency Coordinator for the City of Mission Viejo RACES & ARES programs and have held this position since 1995. Prior to 1995 I was a member of RACES in Los Angeles County before moving to Orange County.

I have been an ARRL member since 1978 and served as Assistant Director for the ARRL Southwestern Division from 1987 to 2004.
