About Me

i am the only son of mexican immigrants, the oldest of three children. i grew up in the suburbs of southern california. punk rock has been the single biggest cultural influnece in my life. i'm crazy about my wife - she is unequivocally the best thing to ever happen to me. i cherish family and friends, though see neither enough. i'm a sucker for hard-luck stories, which is how i became a life-long dog owner (we currently have a 2yo pit bull terrier mix). i'm a proud cal state fullerton titan. i've been lucky enough to land a creative job in media, which has turned me into a burnt out writer but an aspiring photographer. i'm also lucky to be working with cars -- giant toys for adult males. i am forever humbled by those who appreciate my work and tell me so. in my 30s i've become consumed with truth and the human condition. i also had a daughter that was stillborn in the last few years, the memory of which still hurts but has been tempered by the gift of my wonderful son. i try to appreciate the details in life. fundamentally, i think i try to live logically and humbly. and i love to laugh (still) -- big into the laughter.
