I am a lawyer, a Christian minister, and a small businessman. I am probably older than most in hi5 I've noticed so far, but I'm ok with that if everybody else is. I LOVE my wife of 21 years, Gail! I really love meeting people from outside the USA! Gail and I have worked in friendship-building activities with international students in San Diego, where we live, for several years. I don't try to be an overaged teenager, but I do like to think young. I have two awesome daughters, both young adults, one married to a young college prof, the other an actress in LA, single but attached. I LOVE living in San Diego! I feel so blessed to live in this beautiful city I sometimes feel guilty to like it so much. But not for long, because I love the beautiful scenery, weather, and all the things Gail & I get to do with people from all over the world.

I am a lawyer. I specialize in immigration and human rights law. My wife of 21 years, Gail. My two adult daughters, Wendy & Jeanine. God-Jesus. Meeting young people, especially internationals, build bridges of friendship. Soccer, NBA, Olympics.
