My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)

I gave my life to Jesus in 1994. I was a prodigal church kid from a broken home working at a newspaper as a production clerk. After I committed to Jesus and the church, my life changed radically. I got my first Job as an EMT 6 months later and have been in the Emergency Medical Field since. I have Pastored at two different churches and currently do assistant work in my home church. I have been a Firefighter medic at two municipal departments in Southern California and I'm on the Fire Safety Team for the NASCAR track in Fontana, CA. ... and I draw comics.

Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)

I love the whole process. If I had to choose, I'd probably be a writer. I consider myself a storyteller and I think the best feeling is seeing your story come to life. If I couldn't do that I'd be the penciler/line art guy.
