From Northridge, CA, Mason has grown up in a mixed household culture, and has gotten to enjoy and partake in many different traditions. He is Spanish, Puerto Rican, and Creole; and each culture has had a large impact on how he was raised. A large sense of family and community was instilled early on and he tries to keep that positivity alive in his day to day interactions. He’s been an athlete since a child, participating in baseball, martial arts and finally settling on Track and Field for 16 years of competition, and now has been a coach for 6 years. He enjoys long walks on the beach, playing guitar, dancing salsa, running, and enjoying delicious food.
