Born into an immigrant family in the United States, the storyteller faced challenges from an early age. With a father who abandoned his family and a single mother working as a waitress, financial struggles were a familiar reality. Growing up in this environment instilled a sense of frugality and a relentless drive to overcome adversity.
After graduating from high school, he found himself rejected by all the colleges he applied to and opted for local community college since it was free. During his time there, he focused on his studies while also making some side income producing music beats. The savings accumulated during this period set the stage for his future endeavors.
