A perennial honor student and recipient of an “Outstanding Alumnus” award from Subic’s St. James High School in the Philippines, he was an associate editor of The Bay, his school literary organ. After over a dozen, variedly themed writings thru the years, he penned two other books: Subic (An Epochal Philippine Town the US Navy Helped Shape) in 2007 and How to Get “A” Grades in School in 2008— published respectively by PublishAmerica and Xlibris. He is a graduate of the University of the Philippines with a B.S.A. degree, major in economics, class ’54. After a 2-year stint with the (now defunct) Subic Bay U.S. Naval Base, he shifted to professional teaching spanning 11 years, followed by a longer tenure of economic research-oriented government work, which culminated with his retirement as comptroller in the Philippine National Bank in 1985. Giving up his interest in Subic politics’ open mayoral post of the time, he opted to immigrate instead to the U.S. in 1986. A CBEST-based substitute professional teaching credential holder, he retired from the Cal State Teachers Retirement System in 2004.view less
