My goal is to master the game of pool, while promoting the sport in a way that enriches the lifestyle of the players. I believe with the right mix of business savvy, marketing & promotion, the billiard industry can achieve a higher level of esteem in mainstream America.
My long time coach and partner is the Silent Assassin himself, Mr. Tony Robles, one of the top players & instructors in the country. Tony has been an integral part of my development in the sport of pool.
Other important contributors are Lou Tosado, a strong mental coach of the game, and Stu Mattana, recognized in the billiard community as a genius in the art of strategic pool.
I grew up in beautiful Miami, Florida and moved to New York City in 2004. Education and competition have always been important elements of my life. I played varsity softball at Palmetto Senior High, finishing runner up in the State of Florida my junior year & earned the All-Dade 3rd Baseman Award my senior year. I graduated from the University of Florida with a Degree in Accounting in 2003 and earned my CPA license in 2007.
In addition to my roles in the Predator 9-Ball Tour and National Amateur Pool League, I've been the Controller of a billion dollar company in NYC since 2006 and also run my own accounting practice.
With all that going on, how on earth do I find time to play this game?
You make time for that which you love. |
