Personal Bio:

Hi there, I'm Eric Maldonado. My wife Shelby and I have four wonderful children, Asa, Amelia, Grace, and Levi. We love staying involved in our community and local church. You can catch us enjoying one of the many beaches on the central coast, camping somewhere along the coast, or spending time in the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. I also enjoy coaching our local youth sports programs, especially wrestling. 

Where does the name “Aquila” come from?

Aquila means “Eagle” in Latin and it’s a biblical reference to a first-century Christian missionary married couple, Aquila and Priscilla. They were known for encouraging and guiding others towards maximizing their time and resources for lasting impact.
