I moved to Dallas<br \/>\napproximately a year and a half ago from Washington State. I attended<br \/>\nthe Washington School for the Deaf. Before I moved to Dallas, I have<br \/>\nworked with patients at NWDAC (Northwest Deaf Addictions Recovery<br \/>\nCenter). Prior to NWDAC, I used to own a live nightclub (for public),<br \/>\nowned a caf\u00e9, and had a landscaping business of my own along with my<br \/>\nexperience as a handyman\/maintenance for some apartment complexes. I<br \/>\nhave two children, aged 17 and 8. My daughter is Deaf and my young son<br \/>\nis hearing.<\/p>\n<p>Based on my experience that I have had in Washington, I feel I can<br \/>\nmake many good contributions to DAD.
