What is your job at So Cal Biofuel? (CEO)  I am the CEO. That stands for "Crap Eradication Officer". That means that I get to deal with all the crap and try to get rid of it. "When I do get rid of it, the rest of my co-workers bring me more". That may sound like a "stinky" job but all in all I have a good time.  Why are you or how do you feel about being involved in Biodiesel?  I got into Biodiesel because I was tired of the major oil companies having so much control over us and with our natural resources being depleted faster than they can be replenished, I could only see things getting worse. I decided to be part of the solution rather than just complain.  What is your favorite pastime?  I like relaxing in front of the fire, curling up with a good book and taking long walks along the beach…….Not!!! I like playing and singing rock and roll, building things and camping, wake boarding, quad riding, scuba diving, volleyball and hanging out with my family.  What is your favorite saying?  If I gave you a million dollars could you do it?  What is your favorite color?  On cars and trucks…red and black. On eyes…Brown. On lips and fingernails…Pink  If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?  I would make it so people didn't hurt other people.

What is your job at So Cal Biofuel? (CFO)  My job ranges from "grunt" to CFO. I think they give me the "CFO" title so I can do my grunt work with a sense of pride...
