Community Health Worker II

I work for Kaweah Health’s Community Outreach Department as a Community Health Worker II. Previously, I counseled male in-house residents at a rescue mission.  The curriculum I used is called Genesis process, it provides a biblical and neurochemical understanding of what causes our self-destruction and a real plan for lasting change.

For the past six years, my focus has been facilitating chronic disease management and falls prevention workshops for both our seniors and those who are chronically ill. This allows me to do what I am most passionate about, serving others in a way that allows them to live a more fulfilling and better quality of life. Outside of work, I volunteer at a men’s homeless shelter, collect antique cast iron piggy banks, and enjoy spending time with my wife and our grandchildren.
