Javier Valencia was born to Cuban immigrant parents in the Little Havana neighborhood in Miami. Born to a lower class family, Javier struggled through his childhood, attending poorly funded inner-city schools. His family's livelihood was never certain. This instilled within him the value of hard work and determination. He made his way through high school as a straight A student, and managed to get a full scholarship to the University of Miami. 
He then went on to study political science and international relations, and eventually went on to earn his masters degree in international relations. After graduation, he worked for the State Department. He worked his way up, and at his high point was appointed as a US ambassador to Argentina. He served in that position for 3 years, before leaving to become a member of Congress for the very place he grew up.
