Mr. Richard Vasquez

I have 15 years experience in education, the first 2 years having been spent teaching for the Los Angeles Office of Education, working with high risk youth. As a member of the graduating class of 1987, I returned to Damien as an educator in the Fall of 2000. Along with teaching, I have served as Dean of Discipline, and Freshmen counselor.

I am a member of the social science department, teaching world history and freshmen seminar. I have a BA degree in history from California Baptist University.
