The bilingual boxing instructor is a native of the Bronx, who was raised by a single mom in a vibrant Dominican household. He talks about how he fell in love with boxing as a kid at family gatherings and how through sport, he’s able to channel hiscompetitive energy. Find out what motivated him to start running in the first place and what his fitness goals are for 2024 and beyond. Maybe there’s even an Abbott World Marathon Majors six-star medal in his future?
