Calvo] for years when given the opportunity to serve at the office of Guam Homeland Security and [Office of] Civil Defense (GHS/OCD), as Mr. Calvo was Deputy Director of Bureau of Budget and Management Research (BBMR). My first day as Administrator at GHS/ OCD was less than ten (10) days following an issuance of a presidentially declared disaster declaration from Typhoon Pongsona. Shortly after, the government of Guam (GovGuam) became eligible for and received over Four Hundred and Fifty Million Dollars ($450,000,000) for post disaster recovery projects along with another Forty Four Million Dollars ($44,000,000) for mitigation-specific projects. During this specific period, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was recently established and billions of dollars was distributed across the count1y [to] not only strengthen our nation's security posture to throats of terrorism, but to also ensure the public safety in the community was well equipped and highly trained to respond to both natural and technological disasters. Back then the [Gl!S/OCD] did not have tho complete skills set to manage the hundreds of millions of dollars in addition to Committee 011 Appropriations and Adjudication Committee Report Digest for the Exerntive Appointment of Jose S.

It was a no-brainer for GovGuam to utilize the expertise within the particular GovGuam agencies and departments. And I'm proud to have been able to walk away from GHS/ OCD with the cleanest presidentially declared disaster federal audit, which was Typhoon Pongsona, along with compliance to all DHS, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Post-9/11 grants, which I would not have been able to do without the leadership and support of !vfr Calvo and his staff during those very challenging times."

Military became my career choice at first, but after my dad had shared his experiences and with his encouragement, I chose to go to college. However, I really didn't know what I wanted to do until I applied for a teaching scholarship that was offered at the University of Guam. The basis of my essay application on "Why I wanted to Become a Teacher" was outlined as Working to Help the Youth. I was fortunate to receive a full ride with books and tuition paid for, thus setting the path for me to become an educator. With my studies and experiences as a Health and Physical Education teacher, I found that it allowed me to reach students in a variety of ways that in turn has made my life very rewarding as I watched students and athletes appreciate and grow into productive citizens.
