He is a Licensed Professional Counselor and an aspiring musical artist. He had the privilege of being a Physical Education teacher at the elementary level for 8 years. He is the fourth of five children and all of them happen to be educators as well. His parents, Jose and Estella, along with several generations of ancestors have lived exclusively in Texas. He is proud to be an American of Mexican descent, and to also be from the Magical Rio Grande Valley of deep south Texas, which is located just minutes from the international border to Mexico. He has been quoted with the following:
"To be Hispanic and live here in the Rio Grande Valley we get to experience the best of both cultures. At times It seems that we do not belong to either one, but we are also not entirely alienated from either one. What has formed is what we proudly know today as TEX-MEX ! It's all our own thing!"view less
