Phillip is a lifelong Californian, Navy veteran, and longtime public servant with a passion for learning, teaching, and helping others. Raised by parents who graduated from Tuskegee University and moved from Alabama to California, Phillip followed a path of service by joining the Navy at 18, where he worked with nuclear power plants aboard ships and gained extensive engineering and nuclear physics knowledge. He later worked as a contractor electrician before dedicating 30 years to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power as an electric station operator.
Phillip is married with two adult children and enjoys home design, chess, bridge, and meaningful discussions. At ONEgeneration, he found not only a place to play bridge, but also an opportunity to volunteer, connect with others, and continue teaching and learning. He especially values the strong sense of community and the kindness of the staff, sharing, “I thank ONEgeneration for being here to serve seniors. The people who work here are so nice. They really do the work. It’s not just a paycheck.”
