I was born and raised in Colorado and spent my youth camping, fishing, rafting and canoeing with family and friends.

Ever since my grandfather bought me my first pair of cowboy boots as a youth, my love for horses, rodeo and the western life style has been my true passion.

I currently live in Denver, Colorado with my wonderful wife, Tania. She is from Peru and received her law degree in Venezuela. We share the same passions for nature and traveling.

I have spent the last 13 years teaching at the college level, Photoshop, 3D animation and video editing.
