I was born in Cuba in 1963. My family migrated to Spain in ‘74 and eventually to the United States in '77, where we settled in Houston, and have considered Texas our home ever since. God introduced me to my wife, Maria, 27 years ago, and blessed us with three boys who are now in college, and a daughter thru adoption.

I developed an interest in acting at the University of Houston early in my college career. The next few years brought many roles my way, and I realize then how much I enjoyed performing on stage. I have made a living in the restaurant business, doing every job from dishwasher while in High School, to Director of Operations for a national steakhouse, and in 2006 my wife and I opened our own concept, although I never stopped looking for opportunities to be in front of an audience. My recent project, a film called We Are Stronger (www.strongermovie.com), has brought me to this point in my life, where I believe I am called to use my gifts to honor and glorify God. I have always had a heart for mission work, and have traveled abroad a few times to serve...but I can't imagine a more powerful way to impact people's lives, in near and far away places, with His message of grace and hope, than with my performances on stage or screen. I suppose you can sum it up like this...God is not finished with me yet...
