Biography:
I was born and raised on the south side of San Antonio. My 16 year old mother was pregnant with me her junior year in high school and both her and my father graduated from South San Antonio HS in 1993. Their support has been my greatest resource and their love has been my greatest gift. This year they will be celebrating their 28th anniversary.
My roots run deep in the community that built me, and I currently live on the south side of San Antonio, I carry my Bobcat Pride with me everywhere I go. I graduated from UT Cockrell School of Engineering and now bleed orange under my Bobcat Blue skin. I have worked with and done work from companies like Intel, Dell, and Applied Materials.
I married my high school sweet heart whom also attended UT Austin, South San HS, Dwight MS, and South San Saint Joseph’s Catholic Church as I did. I am the Father too three beautiful baby girls. My beloved brother and sister both have attained their bachelor’s degrees and they both attended South San as well.
