I was born in December of 1964. I worked as a Security officer for ten years after serving 5 1/2 years in the Army. Worked as a Border Patrol Agent for about eight months from 1994 to 1995. I am currently the President of El Paso Art Alive, an online newspaper I created to help promote and profile the arts and artists in the El Paso Area outside of El Paso. Currently I am attending U.T.E.P and working on a Bachelors Degree in Multi-Media Journalism with a minor in Economics. During the fall semester of 2011, I am the city editor for Borderzine, UTEP's online magazine where students have the opportunity of writing news stories and having them published.
