“Yesterday was the first day of the rest of my life."

A true look of how the past has led me to become the man that I am today……

Stories (sagas) always start with a beginning. No one ever really considers or appreciates how those humble beginnings came to fruition.

I was born the youngest of four, in a family full of women (true blessing in disguise)..

Born in the United States as an American citizen, son and brother to an immigrant family.

We had loving parents that left a beautiful country overwhelmed by poverty and corruption in efforts to give their children a better life and a chance to have those children show the world who they really were.

We were never raised in an environment that would be detrimental to our upbringing. Although challenging at times for my parents, they never kept us from proper nourishment and always provided us with material items that we as children thought were '“valuable to our livelihood”.

I look back at moments and certainly pictures, then remember how happy I was. How simple life could feel. As a child I was ignorant to the understanding on how hard life really was and how many punches the world could give you. But, between the strong woman of a mother, the determined and glorious spirit of a father and the devotion of three beautiful sisters that never gave up on our morals, I was able to become the man that I am today!
