Born and raised in Little Village (a.k.a. La Villita) on the southwest side of Chicago, Guillermo was introduced to street life at an early age. After surviving several near-death experiences, he decided to walk a new path and rediscovered himself in the field of community violence intervention. As a Street Intervention Manager at Enlace Chicago, he supports the very groups he was once at odds with and encourages his community to stay united in the face of adversity.
