Name: Tommy Nixon
Title: Executive Director
Email: tommynixon@solidarityrising.org
I went to four colleges in four years to complete college in the quickest and cheapest way I could, Pasadena City College, Pacific Christian College, Cal State Fullerton and Fullerton College and I graduated with a B.A. in Sociology in 2001. I have been married to Rachael since 2003 and we have three beautiful daughters. I was born and raised in Pasadena, California and currently reside in the Maple Neighborhood in Fullerton, with my family and Kevin Mo-Wong.
In 2002, I returned home from being in China for an extended amount of time and had no place to live, no job, so what else was I suppose to do? That’s part of how Solidarity was born. I am the Executive Director and am excited about where God is leading us!
What is your favorite TV show? Community or the Office
If Solidarity were a famous individual, who would it be? Hopefully Jesus but probably more like the apostle Peter, John or Thomas.
If Solidarity were a location in the world, where would that be? A monastery in the middle of a slum that had a big party going on inside.
What TV show best describes Solidarity? I feel like we are the show Party of Five- there are older brothers and younger ones, older sisters and younger ones and we are all messed up and helping each other with the main pain and struggle of lost identity.
