Brief Personal History
I was born in Los Angeles, California in 1941. At the age of 7, my family moved to
Bogota, Colombia. My father was in charge of construction of several sections of the Pan
American highway.
I attended a Colombian school through the eighth grade, then returned to°California for
high school and college. I received a B.A. in Political Science from Occidental College.
Thereafter, I served in the United States Air Force for six years as an Intelligence
Officer. I spent two tours in Vietnam in addition to assignments in several other
countries, holding the rank of Captain. I was selected to serve on several disciplinary
panels to review incidents of airmen and officer misdemeanors in the community.
Following the Air Force, I joined our family company. Most of my career has been spent
in Latin America, especially Colombia. I am bi-lingual. I have made an effort to
participate in civic organizations as well as charities in the host countries in which I have
lived_ In Colombia, I was selected by the Colombian -American Chamber of Commerce to
serve as an advisor to the National Police in formulating policy for arrests of expatriates.
For the last 8 years I have lived in Miami where the business, Moore Overseas
Construction Company, is headquartered; I serve as president of the company. I have
been involved in activities of the Coral Gables Methodist Church, as well as serving for
the last 5 years as Secretary on the Board of Directors of Grove Isle, where I live.
With the hope of contributing more actively in Miami civic affairs, I am applying to
become a member of the Civilian Investigative Panel_ If selected, I believe I would make
a valuable contribution in the review of actions of members of the Miami Police
Department_
