The Champ

I am from Orange Walk, also known as Sugar City, where I was born and raised. My father introduced me to pool when he bought himself a billiards table in 2002. I started playing since I was 10 years old. I immediately fell in love with billiards and knew this was something I wanted to pursue in my life. I was fortunate enough to pick up knowledge from top performers such as Leroy Jacobs, Nicknac, Miguel (puma) and last but not least my dad in which he thought me the mental part of billiards. In 2006, my father entered his first team in a local tournament, and it was my first official tournament, during which I won my first MVP Trophy when I was 13 years old. In that same year we entered the Jr’s Cool Spot Team into the Guinness tournament whereby, I also won my first Guinness nationals and I was also the MVP of that tournament. Since that day I was immediately recognized as a top pool player in Orange Walk.

“My dedication and hard work in practicing every other day is what keeps me at such a high level in billiards.”

Every win made me intrigued, and I became accustomed to winning all the time, which motivated me to dedicate my life to always being the best player I can. I have shown to be the most consistent player for more than a decade always being Belize’s Best Player.

Some of my achievement:
• 2 Guinness National Championships
• 1 Belkin National Championship
• 3 Open National Championships
• Multiple - 3 man tournaments
• Multiple - 2 man tournaments
• The most 1st in Individual Tournaments

I have represented Belize 3 times internationally. In addition, the game of billiards has thought me many things in life most of all respect for others. I personally believe That I Have not yet reached my ultimate level in billiards but I am doing everything to do so. My ultimate goal is to play in the U.S Open Tournament and Pan-American tournament in Argentina so I can represent Belize and try to bring back a Gold Medal for my home Country. I personally believe that I will reach my goal and live my dream with hard work and dedication and will always continue to strive for greatness.
