In this engaging episode of The Tragedy Academy Podcast, we sit down with a guest whose story is both inspiring and reflective of perseverance. Born in Silver Spring, Maryland, to a Cuban mother and Colombian father, our guest moved to Tampa at the age of 15.

A father of two boys and step-father to two girls, our guest's life has been marked by both tragedy and triumph. A traumatic sports injury at the age of 15 forever changed the course of his life, and the loss of his younger brother in 2012 and grandmother in 2020 has shaped his outlook and resilience.

Despite the challenges, his pursuit of education is impressive, having attended various collegiate institutions such as USF, FIT, UN, and VU. With an MBA, post-graduate certifications, and over 10 industry certifications, our guest is a self-taught programmer with a passion for learning and growth.

2021 marked the launch of his first business venture, an achievement that showcases his entrepreneurial spirit. Looking to the future, he aims to launch a second venture and continue expanding onward and upward. His experiences are a testament to the ability to overcome adversity and find success, aligning perfectly with the themes of tragedy and triumph that are central to The Tragedy Academy Podcast. 🎙️
