About the Author

He grew up in two worlds, the upper middle class surfer beach society of Santa Monica, California, and the ghettos of South Central Los Angeles, during an era where the junior high and high school he attended were among the most notorius, not only in the city, but in the state. Transitioning from a “white boy surfer dude, go with the fl ow” mentality to chanting a mantra of “I might have to kill someone today” to prepare for survival in a foreign and hostile world surrounded by gangs and drugs, helped teach him how important individual deciscions and the choices we make each moment impact our lives. A character forged by transition and constant change, moving eighteen times before his nineteenth birthday, suffering four broken homes, physical, psychological, and emotional abuse, the author proves it is our choice to be who we are; the man we develop into.
