| Hi my name is Darin Dyroff, I live in Pismo Beach California. I was born and raised in Phoenix Arizona before moving to the Central Coast in 2010. I have been studying the paranormal since 1997 after having a personal experience that was unexplainable. I founded Voices Paranormal Research Investigations aka V.P.R.I in Phoenix Arizona. During my tenure with V.P.R.I I conducted several paranormal investigations and one investigation in particular needed the assistance of Mitch Flores, founder of Central Coast Paranormal Investigators. Since that contact with Mitch we became friends and partners with the same goal in paranormal research, to seek the answers to the unknown. My mission with the Central Coast Paranormal Investigators is to educate the public and those who are experiencing paranormal activity to be able to separate fact from fiction. To help those who might be feeling fear from their unexplainable experiences to understand that there should be no reason to fear the unknown. The only thing to fear, is fear itself. |
| Hi, my name is Mitch Flores and I'm the founder of the Central Coast Paranormal Investigators. I founded C.C.P.I in 2007 with only one goal, to help those who are experiencing paranormal activity. I have lived on the Central Coast of California for a majority of my life. I'm a attendee of Arroyo Grande High school from '94 to '98 and later graduated from Delta continuation high school in which I earned my high school diploma. I Experienced the paranormal a few times in my life and those are the reasons that led up to me starting the Central Coast Paranormal Investigators. I realized that there was nobody on the Central Coast to help those experiencing paranormal activity in their homes or place of business so I wanted to be the first paranormal research team that somebody could turn to for help. My goal with C.C.P.I is to help any and all people experiencing paranormal activity and to find the answers to all the questions we are all looking for. That is the goal of mine and for the Central Coast Paranormal Investigators team. "Don't Fear the Unknown". Certificate 1 Certificate 2 Certificate 3 |

| Hi, my name is Tom Burbank. I was born and raised in Santa Cruz California. I was exposed to different spiritual traditions and philosophies at a young age and has dedicated his life to gaining knowledge and understanding of the occult. In my search for truth, I found himself at the feet of many spiritual teachers from Catholic Priests to Native American Shamans. All of whom contributed to my spiritual path and helped to teach the universal truths shared by all spiritual traditions. It is my goal to assist those who do not understand or fear the worlds of spirit and bring them comfort through understanding. When people feel unsafe, overwhelmed, or are living in fear, I am here to help them. "To those who do not understand the world of spirit, paranormal experiences can be terrifying. That's why I'm here, to bring comfort in a time of fear, and to be a source of light in the face of darkness." |
| Hi my name is Sandra Cortez and I grew up in Southern California and moved to the Central Coast in 1991. I attended Cal Poly Pomona. For may years I only spoke of paranormal experiences with family and very close friends. Since childhood I have had many unexplainable experiences, sometimes I was alone but other times there were other people around who also witnessed the same thing. My paranormal experiences started before I was 9, and continue to this day. It has ranged from hearing footsteps, and seeing no one, to body size mist (both of those others witnessed also). My first camera was my mother's old brownie box camera, she had used when she was a teenager. I have always loved all of the arts, but there is something special about being able to capture the moment on film. My photography have been published in "Variety" and "Seventeen Magazine", and most local newspapers. My goal with the Central Coast Paranormal Investigators is to capture on film our experiences and to provide you with real genuine paranormal evidence by photography.

| Micah Watkins: Investigator |
| Hello my name is Micah Watkins, I was born in Lindsay Ca and raised in Porterville Ca. I was a gradute from Monache Highschool in 2000. I moved to the Central Coast when I was 20 years old and I have called it home ever since. I have been interested in the paranormal since I was a young child and that interest has fueled my passion for paranormal research. In my study of parapsychology I have learned that some spirits attatch themselves to a place, object, or even a person and knowing that gave me a better understanding of why the activity was in the house that I grew up in. The activity in my house started when we brought in antiques from my great grandmothers house after she had passed away. Appliances turning themselves on, voices coming from other rooms, and apparitions in our hallway were everyday occurances in my household. Those experiences used to frighten me as a young child but later fueled my curiosity and obsession with the paranormal. My goal with the Central Coast Paranormal Investigators is to help educate people not to be afraid of something you dont fully understand. |
