It may be tough, but the tough one is the one that always survives. Influences My family influenced me immensely, especially in the area of education. I was raised to realize how important education is. My dad felt education was the first and most important thing. Though growing up we really had minimal luxuries around the house, we did go to private school.
Education is what money went for in our home.
My grandfather raised 11 kids selling bread and cheese, but my dad knew how hard that was. I really looked up to my dad and my uncle. Personal Information I was born and grew up in Ponce, Puerto Rico, on the south coast. As a kid, I loved to read comics, and build plastic models. Now I read a lot as a way to relieve stress.
