I was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, home of the Maple Leafs and Blue Jays. I ran away from home at the age of ten and grew up in Foster Care with the Catholic Children’s Aid Society. As a young person, I used music and art as a creative outlet and was part of a hip-hop group in my teens called E.P. (the Effervescent Play Posse). We performed numerous places including the Exhibition place in Toronto, and we were offered a record contract after that performance.
I moved out on my own at sixteen and worked consistently while also dabbling in small business and in my later teens obtained a financial advisor and started investing small amounts of money.
