During her 7-year stay in the Red Rocks Jodi developed divine communication with Angelic Teachers as her spiritual development started to blossom. Jodi is known within the group for taking many pictures, some with haunting success! She has also noticed her own intuitive ability sharpening as she works with the group's gifted physics. Jodi feels a little more truth is revealed with every new investigation. Currently, Jodi works with children in Los Angeles, California, enabling her to give back to society as a humanitarian.

Donna has a strong sense of spiritual activity, which she was learning to develop as the investigations progressed. Donna has joined Maritza on investigations when Maritza has been visiting back east, as well as when Donna visits her family here. We are very happy that Donna is back in San Diego, and we enjoy working with her.

Karen Karen is an Associate Archaeologist/Historian. She has a B.A. degree in History from Cal State San Marcos, an A.A. degree in Archaeology and a Certificate in American Indian Studies from Palomar Community College. Karen has been a practicing archaeologist for ten years. Her interest in the paranormal reaches as far back as childhood. She remembers always feeling strange when visiting historic towns and museums, creating a deep passion for discovering the peoples and stories of the past. Karen has volunteered with the San Diego Ghost Hunters for the past three years and has worked with them on many of the projects. Tom Foster Tom has accompanied the Team on numerous historical investigations. He has vast knowledge of World War artifacts, and has worked with many historical societies. Tom was born in Orange County, California, and is now a resident of Miami, Arizona -- a small copper mining community. His interest in in the unexplained and hauntings began early-on, living in a house that exhibited subtle, but classic signs of activity. Tom's interest grew and he photographed his first apparition in the summer of 1964. All of this came to an end one February night in 1968, involved in things for the wrong reasons. He was visited - a warning of sorts - and years passed before his courage returned, and his interest re-kindled. Older now, and refocused, with interest in antiques, history, investigative research and restoration, he has again become somewhat active in researching and photographing places with reported activities and energies that reside in haunted locations. Tom worked with Maritza on the Kate Morgan story for the Hotel Del Coronado. Tom, finding the gun and ammunition that would have been used in that time period, was able -- with Maritza -- to reconstruct some of the history of the Kate Morgan story.
Out Of Town Member Suzanne Evans Ever since I was a little girl I have been hearing ghost stories about my grandpa's house being extremely haunted by a young lady. So with me growing up hearing all of this just made me way more interested in the paranormal. I first got involved with San Diego Ghost Hunters when I lived in California, we had met over at the Whaley House. Ever since then I have been meeting up with them and doing investigations. Living 2,500 miles away cant stop me from doing what I love. I also take pictures in the group, and usually get some awesome photographs! :-)
