Oscar was born in Los Angeles, California.  At a very young age, he moved to Chula Vista where he has resided most of his life.  When Oscar was eight years old, his family began to attend a Christian church and a few years later, he joined the praise and worship team. To further his education as a worship leader, he graduated from Instituto CanZion.  He met his wife as a teenager while he was in the worship team and married her in 2014. Now with more than 16 years of experience as a praise and worship director, 8 years as a studio recording musician, and 4 years as music teacher, God has given him the opportunity to work at PCCPrep. His vision is to prepare and equip worshipers with passion for the souls. 

Gail has been involved with education since she first tutored college students when she was 20. Since that time she has taught Mathematics and Senior Leadership, served as Director of Student Services, Academic Coach, Director of Curriculum and Instruction, and now Director of Academics at Pacific Coast Christian Prep. She has served on the visiting committee for Accreditation as well as helped guide three schools successfully through the process. Throughout her career, she has remained passionate about training teachers in the instructional methods needed to successfully guide students to discern the world around them through a Biblical lens as they study each of the disciplines needed to be fully prepared for success at the collegiate level. Gail and her husband Richard have five adult children. Victor and Jeremiah are Project Managers, Joy owns Vida Bella Salon for hair, Santiago is a trained EMT and entrepreneur and Pamela is a student at Liberty University. 

Richard was born in Juarez, Chihuahua (Mexico).  His family emigrated to the United States when he was in elementary school.  He remembers his father saying "Ricardo, in the US you can do anything you want. All you have to do is work hard in school and obey your teachers, and good things will unfold."  Well, Senior Luis Andujo was absolutely correct: all four of his children graduated from universities, two with doctoral degrees. 

Realizing the importance of obtaining a college education, Richard earned an B.A. in Social Science with a minor in Spanish from San Diego State University (SDSU), an M.A. in Political Science from SDSU and an Ed.D. in Educational Administration from Pensacola Christian College. Since academics and athletics were so critical to his development, he decided to teach: first, Political Science at Southwestern Community College and San Diego State University, then high school Spanish and Physical Education.  During this time, he was asked to serve in administration where he found his unique gift set of empowering teachers and parents to use their individual backgrounds and knowledge to train students for their futures.  Pacific Coast Christian Prep is the third school he has been a part of launching. 

He is thrilled to be a part of the PCCPrep team as they seek to create a school that is academically rigorous and spiritually vibrant. 

Victor serves as the Chief Operating Officer and Athletic Director at Pacific Coast Christian Prep. He received B.A degrees in both International Economics and Social Sciences from San Diego State University where he also competed in Soccer and Football for the Aztecs. Following his undergraduate studies, Victor then earned his M.B.A. at Point Loma Nazarene University. 

Autumn was born in the Los Angeles area and gave her life to the Lord her freshman year of high school when she attended a church camp on Catalina Island. After high school Autumn decided to pursue her Bachelors Degree in Child Development at a Christian college and chose Point Loma Nazarene University.  She has been blessed to work in Christian schools since 2004. Autumn is excited to use her gifts in administration to serve the Pacific Coast Christian Prep students, families and staff. Autumn's favorite verse is Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” 

Paige, a native San Diegan, accepted Christ into her heart when she was in preschool at St. Andrew’s Lutheran Church in La Mesa. She grew up in a Christian home, continuing to grow in her walk with God by attending Sunday school, confirmation, youth group, and going on mission trips across the country. Her faith grew tremendously through these trips, and she was able to really feel the Holy Spirit working within her and among others. 

Paige attended Point Loma Nazarene University, receiving her B.A. in Liberal Studies with a concentration in math and human development, with a minor in Psychology. She has her Master’s in Teaching from PLNU as well. She subbed for grades K-8 in the La Mesa Spring Valley School District for 2 years and taught fourth and fifth grade at a private Christian School for another 2 years. 

Paige has wanted to be a teacher since she was a little girl and is so excited and blessed to be living out her dream here at Pacific Coast Christian Prep. God is good!

David came to faith in Christ at the age of five, was baptized at the age of 12, and has sought to follow Him since then. Raised in a God-fearing home where following Christ was his parents' desire for all of their children, he continues in his parents' footsteps, learning to trust God with the same kind of obedience. David is married to Krista and is the father of three children. He and his family have served as missionaries in Costa Rica and Spain. Academically, David is a graduate of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary - (Ed.D.) in Theological Education, Dallas Theological Seminary - (Th.M.) in Bible Exposition, College at Old Westbury - State University of New York - (B.S.) in Accounting, and Word of Life Bible Institute (Diploma) in Biblical Studies. His desire is that students come to know the God of the Bible, decide to follow Him no matter the costs, and excel in ministry and the marketplace. 

Krista teaches English and Drama. She holds a BA in English from the University of South Florida. She also completed a two-year Bible and Ministry program at Word of Life Bible Institute in Schroon Lake, NY, and a one-year Spanish language intensive at the Spanish Language Institute in San Jose, Costa Rica. 

Krista came to faith in Christ as a fifth-grade student at a small Christian school in Winter Haven FL. At age 16, she rededicated her life to Christ and felt the Lord was calling her into full-time ministry. Krista began working with youth as a Bible college student, and as a camp counselor (where she met her husband, David). From there, she and her husband worked with middle school youth at their local church. From 2005-2007, the McGees served as missionaries in Costa Rica and Spain. Then, in 2007, Krista began teaching English at a Christian school in Tampa, FL. Her second year there, the Lord allowed her to begin teaching Drama - an unexpected blessing, uniting all of her passions: ministry, English, and theater. She has taught at three Christian schools since 2007 and loves working with teens and helping them find God's purpose for their lives. 

Erika is a veteran educator with many years of experience. She has taught from 1st grade to 12th grade students which prepared her for being an administrator who understands her students as well as the teachers. After serving with her husband as missionaries in Spain, she came back to San Diego and worked in Christian Education for 13 years where the Lord blessed her work; she started teaching High School Spanish and AP Spanish with a 90% passing rate. She then took on different responsibilities: Spanish department head, Lead teacher, Dean of students, Vice Principal and served as Principal during the last three years. She has a BA, MA, Teaching Credential and an Administrator's Credential. She and her family have been faithfully serving the Lord for over 30 years in various ministries throughout the world. Erika loves Christian education because she has seen how the Lord can use a school not only to train up a child in academics, but train him with a biblical worldview so he or she is better equipped to face the challenges of everyday life. She believes that if we put Christ First in our lives, we will have a balanced life.  The verse that describes Christian Education for her is: "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?" Mark 8:36 

Stephanie is from New England and moved to San Diego in the mid nineties. She gave her life to the Lord while attending church at Horizon Christian Fellowship. Stephanie met her husband at Horizon when they were both serving in the Children's Ministry. They were married soon after and were blessed with a son. Stephanie believes that both her husband and son are gifts from the Lord which is why her favorite Bible verse is, "Every good and perfect gift is from above." James 1:17

Stephanie attended SDCCD and completed 15 units of Child Development coursework. She served as a Lead teacher for 6 years at Horizon Christian Preschool. Stephanie is truly thankful, honored, and excited to be at PCCPrep serving such wonderful students, families, and staff.

Debbie was born in Kansas City, KS, but she grew up in Kansas City, Missouri, where she accepted the Lord as her Savior at age 8.   

She earned her B.S. in Bible and Secondary Education in Mathematics from Calvary University in Kansas City, MO. Upon graduation, she moved to San Diego to teach mathematics at Midway Baptist School (now known as Ocean View Christian Academy). While teaching and attending Midway Baptist Church, she met and married her husband, Carlos, and began the life of a military wife. Debbie continued her teaching career after marriage at Horizon Jr/Sr High School until duty called and the family started moving every 2-4 years as a military family. The Romero family continued to grow as they moved around the world with the birth of their children: Nicholas (San Diego); Darianna (Yokosuka, Japan); Kyle (Virginia) and Kinsey (Illinois). 

During the years of traveling, Debbie stayed close to the education field by earning her Master’s Degree in Human Relations from the University of Oklahoma as well as substitute teaching, private tutoring, and volunteering at her children’s schools. In preparation for retirement from the military, the family returned to San Diego, where the kids attended Horizon Christian Academy. In 2011, Debbie joined the HCA team and served as the Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Accreditation until the summer of 2017. She joined the CCA team for the 2017-2018 school year and feels privileged to now be a part of the PCCPrep family. Her desire is to engage students in activities that show how God used mathematics in His creation and to discover mathematics throughout Scripture.

Angela comes from a legacy of Christ-serving educators. With both her mother and father as teachers, one could say that “teaching is in her blood.” Raised in Orange County, Angela remembers the joy of helping her family with their classrooms. She learned from her parents that God loves her. She also learned the truth about the Lord from her pastor-grandpa and grandma. In high school, she loved using her gifts and knowledge from God to teach younger children at church. 

It was God’s will for Angela in 2008 to declare a Liberal Studies (Education) major at Cal Poly SLO. At this time, her faith became her own and she went from believing in God to believing God and loving Him back. During college, she married her childhood sweetheart, who also loves the Lord. When she finished her credential at Cal Poly, she and her husband, Vince, were called to work in San Diego County. Since 2012, she has taught 1st, 4th, 5th, and 6th grades both at Christian and public schools. She has also served as a Lead Teacher and Vice Principal. Angela, her husband, and their daughter live in Chula Vista. She is so glad to teach the next generation at PCCPrep, where the Lord so clearly reigns.  

She lives and teaches by the guiding verse: “So we tell others about Christ, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all the wisdom God has given us. We want to present them to God perfect in their relationship to Christ. That’s why I work and struggle so hard, depending on Christ’s mighty power that works within me.” Colossians 1:28-29.
