I was born and raised in Guatemala and immigrated to the United States to join my parents in my early twenties. Joined the ABC USA and founded and pastored two churches in Southern California. In 1999 joined International Ministries, serving as a missionary in Bolivia. Since 2015, I have spent much of my career as Chaplain and Bereavement Service Director for Unity Hospice, learning Process Thought and interim pastor at Cambridge Drive Community Church. I hold a BS in Philosophy and Religion from the University of La Verne, a Master of Arts and Theology from the Fuller Theological Seminary, and a Doctor of Ministry from Carey Theological College in Vancouver, Canada. For the last several years, I have also held an Adjunct Professor position in the Department of Religion and Philosophy at La Verne University, serving at the American Baptist Theological Center, Pasadena, Ca.
