Here's his story, in his own words...

On Monday, June 4, 2007, I will be joining the staff of Being Alive as the Wellness and Prevention Coordinator. My history with Being Alive dates back to 1993 when I was diagnosed HIV positive.

The first support group I attended was at Being Alive in Silverlake. The encouragement, support, and love the staff and members of Being Alive gave me was life saving. And through the years I have continued to volunteer and use the amazing services Being Alive offers.

As the new Wellness and Prevention Coordinator, I will give 100% to the job and will join Rafael, Kevin, Bart, and Charles in giving nothing less than my total commitment to all the members of Being Alive. Please stop in and introduce yourself when you are in our office.
