From the sun-kissed landscapes of Guatemala to the bustling streets of California, my journey has been one of resilience, perseverance, and self-discovery. Born into a world of contrasts, I learned early on the value of hard work and determination. School became my sanctuary, a place where dreams could flourish despite the shadows lurking in the streets.Growing up, I faced the harsh realities of gang violence, navigating a delicate balance between education and survival. But through the ups and downs, I refused to let adversity define me. My family, though fractured by trauma and addiction, instilled in me a spirit of resilience that would carry me through the darkest of times.I've walked the tightrope between life and death more times than I care to count, yet each brush with mortality only fueled my determination to rise above the chaos. Along the way, I explored countless spiritual paths, seeking solace and meaning in a world filled with uncertainty.In the midst of chaos, one constant remained: my love for music. It was my refuge, my salvation, a guiding light in the midst of darkness. Through melodies and lyrics, I found healing, understanding, and the strength to keep going.Despite the odds stacked against me, I pursued my passion for soccer with unwavering determination. From the academy fields to the professional tryouts, I poured my heart and soul into the beautiful game, finding solace and purpose with each kick of the ball.Outside the pitch, I honed my skills as a certified personal trainer, channeling my lifelong love for fitness into a career dedicated to helping others unlock their full potential. From warehouse work to fast food to retail sales, I've worn many hats in pursuit of my dreams, never losing sight of the fire burning within.As a proud member of Boy Scouts Troop 187, I learned the values of leadership, teamwork, and service to others. And as a trilingual individual, I discovered the power of language to bridge divides and connect hearts across cultures.Through it all, music has been my greatest teacher, guiding me through the trials and tribulations of life with its timeless wisdom and boundless beauty. With every beat, every rhythm, and every lyric, I've learned to dance through the storms and embrace the journey, one melody at a time.
