Born in the heart of GTO, Mexico, in 1970, my journey has been one of relentless dedication to athletic excellence. At the age of 3, my family and I relocated to California, where I was enveloped in unwavering support from loved ones and friends. My innate athleticism shone brightly as I delved into various sports, from boxing to baseball. However, it was on the Friday night lights of Buena High School in 1988 that I truly left my mark. I claimed the title of Defensive Lineman of the Year in Football and secured the Wrestling C.I.F Heavyweight Championship, along with the Most Valuable Wrestler award. But my thirst for success extended beyond high school. College beckoned, and I answered the call. Ventura College recognized my football prowess, bestowing upon me the All-Western State Conference Award. At Moorpark College, I achieved Wrestling All-American honors and played a pivotal role in our triumphant Team State Championship win in 1991. My journey reached a pivotal moment under the guidance of Eduardo Garcia, a wise trainer from the renowned "La Colonia Boxing Gym" in Oxnard, California. It was under his watchful eye that I clinched the Golden Gloves Championship in 1995, a victory that propelled me to the Olympic trials and secured my spot on the Mexican Selection Team. My quest for excellence took me to elite training facilities worldwide, including the iconic Olympic Training Center in Havana, Cuba, and eventually winning a Silver medal in the Central American Games, Mexico City. And competing in the Olympic box off’s in Halifax Canada. In 1996, I made the leap into the realm of professional boxing, honing my skills under Eduardo Garcia's tutelage and sparring with heavyweight legends like Lamon Brewster and David Tua, who were among the top-rated heavyweights of the era. Beyond the ring, I ventured into a second career on the silver screen, with a cameo in "Snake Eyes" (1998) and a captivating role in the television series "Thunder Box" (2000). Yet, my true passion lies in the bonds forged with fellow athletes and the unwavering support I extend to those who share the thrill of competition. Today, my focus is on sculpting the destinies of both professional and amateur boxers, as well as athletes across various disciplines. My mission remains unwavering: to ignite the flames of greatness within each individual, raise the bar for personal training standards, and inspire an entire generation to reach heights they once deemed unattainable. My experience is second to none, and I am committed to helping others achieve unparalleled success on their own remarkable journeys.
