Biography

[edit]

Originally from Bayamón, Puerto Rico, Mora became interested in music at a young age. At age six, he learned how to play the flute and later learned how to play the piano.[citation needed]

He studied in a Montessori school, where the academic focus was more on the arts than traditional studies. As a teenager, he played basketball and tennis at Colegio San José in Río Piedras, but he did not quit making music.[citation needed]

He was accepted to study Business Administration at the Universidad de Puerto Rico, however he did not complete his degree and left the university after a short amount of time. He also attended the Berklee College of Music, but he dropped out of the university.[2] In 2017, he began his pursuit of a career in music, releasing his first songs.[citation needed]
