Tyrone Garcia was born February 9, 1961 in the borough of the Bronx, in New York. Bore from Puerto Rican parents, Tyrone resided in Bronx River Housing Projects where he lived a life surrounded by gangs, drugs, alcohol, crime, abuse, and racism.

However, life changed for Tyrone and he was able to break away from his life of drugs, alcohol, and poverty to a life of business, education, and suburban living. Now a former business owner, a college student, and dedicated family man Tyrone has taken the time to write down his story for all to read.
