Prior to relocating to the North Bay, I had held full-time positions at these institutions: Senior Instructor at English Language Service Center in Santa Monica, CA; Instructor at the Chinatown Resources Development Center in San Francisco, CA; and Secondary School Teacher for the U.S. Peace Corps in Congo-Kinshasa, Central Africa. I had also taught part time for several years in the Division of Adult & Career Education, Los Angeles Unified School District.
