So on the bright side of this mad week. Today marked one year ago where I made a temporary sacrifice to tackle barber school full time which did take a lot for me to do at the time.  Mentally, financially, spiritually, emotionally I was not there yet.  Didn’t feel ready but I got tired of not taking the chance to do something I really wanted to do.  I did it and it worked out for the better.  This is one of the most important mile stones for me.  From loosing it all to gradually getting back on my feet and reforming myself.  I wanna thank @byrdmena  for pointing me in the direction and being mad helpful and transparent with me. @tiginewtown  for helping me and meeting some amazing people. @g1cuts_barbershop  for giving me a chance at the shop. @cordovablends for teaching me a lot of techniques. I went from having zero clients to cutting over 200-300 people since April, to being on the news.  I’m extremely happy and grateful for the people I have around me and surround myself with.  If it wasn’t for yall also especially my boy @thefirstcarlos he helped me own up to my bullshit and my self sabotaging ways.  He helped me when I felt I didn’t have anyone in my corner. I beat depression because of him and people around me but ultimately myself.  I beat the negative Ralf that was holding the better me back that I didn’t know existed.  War against myself.  I have a different love for life ever since.  I love all my close friends.  I just wanna be at peace with my life.  That’s the main thing. Cheers for more life and positivity, and cut the evil in this world šŸ»

Appreciate @fox61news and @vallery.maravi.tv for interviewing me and sharing my story.  A dope experience for sure and just another chapter in my journey. Wouldn’t be possible if it wasn’t for some people in my life @byrdmena for changing the industry and inspiring others including myself and leading me in the right direction. My boy @thefirstcarlos was the only one I was cutting years ago back to back and helped me buy my first good set of clippers and trimmers when I was struggling financially, and was giving me hard solid advice I needed to hear he helped me become a better man and stop making excuses. @zformayor for putting on for her city always and lighting the touch for her city and always rooting for me always, her and Carlos seen me at my lowest and my struggles, Waterbury stand up and support. Want to thank @jorgerafaelmartinez_ @mattyriccs @tiginewtown @jamiemac.barber @georgecancut @nickyancoskie @clomiro_cuts @jasonjmuniz @scottisnipz @hy_murphy @mollyjusthair for being apart of my school & hair journey and showing me techniques, shoutout to @g1cuts_barbershop for believing in me and giving me a chance at his shop when he didn’t have to.

2025 BARBER EXPO

Thank you to everyone that showed me love and support for the instructor of the year voting. Unfortunately I didn’t win but that’s okay, I know to my students past and present I’ve been the best instructor and to me that’s a victory within itself, without them I wouldn’t be the instructor I am today. I’m just motivated to continue being the best Barber and instructor I can be and continue to share the love of my craft thru education. To everyone that went out to the Barber Grammys with me thanking you for being there and helping me keep my head up! The expo was amazing as always, had lots of fun and won some money while at it. Like I said I still feel like a winner and that’s how Ima act!

From competitor to educator, from student to example.
CT Barber Expo brought the energy, but I am the fire.
