A clown at heart, he loved making his family laugh and entertained them at family events as "Cantinflas". Born in El Salvador, he grew up in the San Fernando Valley, California, moving from apartment to apartment every few years with his uncles, aunts, cousins, mother and two older brothers. He started sneaking out of his house at age 6 to go out and play in the streets, and in that he found a love for sports. After graduating from Ulysses S. Grant high school in 1996, he attended Valley College. During this time he met a man who would ultimately introduce him to acting.
He has worked with Oscar/Emmy award winning Directors and Actors through out his career. He got his first role as a guest star on the show "The Shield" in 2002.
