WARREN JESSOP moved to Lahaina from Southern California in 1976. Over the years, he's built a diverse career, working as a commercial photographer, mortgage loan officer, rainwater catchment system expert, life insurance/annuity agent, and living benefits specialist. Throughout, he's remained a dedicated student of the Bible and a passionate teacher, sharing his knowledge freely. He and his wife, Henedina, raised three sons, and they now enjoy the company of three granddaughters, all of whom live on Maui. Having lived in Lahaina for his first 17 years on the island, Warren now gives back to the community by volunteering his time and expertise with the Lahaina Sunset Rotary Club."
