I met Hulk in an open-air training zone in the southern part of Miami. It was early, and not many people were training. He was there, working hard and exhibiting a strong sense of determination – the kind needed to realize your aspirations. That is what I wanted to capture in this photograph after I asked him to make his portrait.

As a self-taught photographer and avid traveler, I embarked on a mission to utilize my photography to support charitable causes. Joining the board of directors for The Forgotten International in 2019, I sought to leverage my skills to raise funds for those in need. Through the sale of books and prints, I aimed to shed light on the struggles faced by communities in developing countries and contribute to meaningful projects. Through my photography, I strive to inspire others, evoke emotions, and make a positive impact on the world around me.
