His father is an Ex-pro baseball player and gave him the inspiration to follow his dreams.

Soon after he was accepted into the Berklee College of Music out of Boston, MA but didn't attend due to taking a job offer to work as a promoter in NYC for BB King Blues Club and perform in local venues around NYC.
