He lived in an orphanage from the age of 6 years old until he was 18. To this day, his family history and the reason of his separation is unclear and spent most of those years at the institution without any visitors, until the Lord heard his prayers and a young mentor showed up and kept showing up, thru him, the Lord made his love and care palpable. They remain close.

He is currently a documental photographer specially focused on social work. He is now Mentor to 8 children from the same orphanage he grew up in, faithfully visiting them, following up on their development and committed to putting them thru college.
