Mr. Sanchez was born in Florida during the height of the space race. He is the youngest of four sons to Cuban immigrants who escaped to the U.S in 1959. Being the youngest, he was always a dreamer, a hopeful, and an old soul, transitioning from black and white television shows to the magic of technicolor. Growing up in a religious family, he always knew of the Lord, but it would be years later that he would meet Him. He earned an English degree from Florida International University in 1994. His passions in life are Jesus, his wife, aviation, sports, and the great outdoors. He now lives a blessed life in southern Oklahoma with his wife Barbara and their two furry children Jerusha and Buster.
