I was born in Miami, Florida on Sept. 20th 1977. My parents are both cuban imigrants who found each other in the South Florida area. Although I am the only proffesional musician in my immediate family, My folks have always been music lovers, so music has always been a part of my life. I started playing Guitar at age 8, and switched over to Bass Guitar at 13. At 18 I picked up the Upright bass. Most of my teen years were spent playing Rock and Heavy Metal, as well as some Jazz and Fusion in my early college years. In my early 20's I spent 3 years living and giging in Spain. In 2003 I moved to NYC to become the best musician I can be !!! ..............................................................................
