setbacks of life.
Born in Los Angeles, California and growing up
in the inner-city of Dallas, Texas. Ken and his
family moved over 18 times in the same city
before he was out of High School. Seeing his mom
do whatever she could do to make ends meet Ken
found out at a young age the struggles and
temptations of life. Surrounded by drugs and
alcohol, extreme poverty and a real sense of
hopelessness, athletics became Ken’s light at
the end of the tunnel.
