Most people back home know him as Chayote.

Got into golf by following his older brother, Ricardo, at local tournaments.

Earliest golf memory is, at four years old, playing with his brother, Ricardo, and sister, Maria Regina, at the Club de Golf Malanquin in his longtime hometown of San Miguel del Allende, Mexico; he remembers getting a Cleveland hybrid for Christmas that year and hitting it all over the course.

Older sister, Maria Regina, earned a Ph.D in finance from University of Texas at San Antonio. She played four seasons on the women's golf team at St. Mary’s University (2015-19), an NCAA Division II program in San Antonio, Texas, where she won five times individually and broke school records for career scoring average, single-season scoring average, and career rounds in the 60s, in addition to earning 2019 All-America First Team and 2018 All-America Second Team selections.

Loves to play Call of Duty.

Enjoys playing table tennis and pickleball.

Favorite sports team is Real Madrid.
