Being born in Caracas, Venezuela, growing up in Los Angeles then transplanting to San Francisco, has given me a unique perspective. Not only is my life filled with different flavors and influences, but it's also shaped my entire cultural outlook. A 'mash-up' of cultures and musical influences have shaped my style. I am passionate, not just about music, but in life (some say that's the Scorpio in me). My friends think I'm a workaholic but I love what I do, so it's a trade-off. My musical taste is diverse, ranging from Rock to Salsa and everything in between. I love music, it surrounds me, guides me, and excites me. My approach to things is laid back, but my vibe is intense. I believe in staying true, staying humble and most of all, being thankful.
