REY PASCUA was born and raised in the Philippines. He migrated to the United States in 1987. He is a retired US Navy and a proud single father of three beloved treasures, Allison, Julia and Jarek. He moved to Santa Clarita in 2010 because of its safe community, well-thought of residential plan, and its family-oriented culture, making it an ideal place to raise his children.

With his military trade, he was able to get his Steam Engineer license from the City of Los Angeles, and currently holds the position of Stationary Engineer II with the Los Angeles County.

 

Rey is an active coach for the Castaic Lake dragon boat team. His objective is to promote to our kababayans, the Philippine culture through health and wellness in dragon boating. He believes that giving back to his country is an inherent part of being a Filipino. He will help elevate the promotion of the Philippine culture, traditions, camaraderie and practices to our fellow kababayans, with focus on health and wellness, while maintaining the integrity of the Fil-Am Association.
