I was born in Los Angeles and was raised in San Bernardino, Ca. I transferred to UC- Santa Barbara, along with my wife, from Riverside Community College in the fall of 2006. Two years later I was the first person in my family to be enrolled in a Ph. D. program. Check out my website for more information:
