I am currently in college at Fullerton College and I am studying to major in Intercultural Studies. My dad’s name is Sergio and my mom’s name is Carmen. I have two sisters and one of them is married and she has one child. I am the youngest. I am married to Whitney who is also on staff and am excited that she is now part of Padilla family. I am from Mexico from the State of Jalisco and currently live with my parents in the Garnet neighborhood.
In March of 2006, a friend of mine introduced me to the Teen Center that Solidarity runs in the Garnet neighborhood, and I became friends with Matt Anderson who was on staff. Now I work as the Teen Center Director.
