He is a fourty-year-old gay man and lives in Orlando Florida. He is currently considering grad school and possibly beyond that, his Doctorate.
 
Rolando is an Army brat who like many other Army brats, has had a complex life. He is Puerto Rican and was born in Elizabeth NJ. He was raised by a single mom who retired a few years back as a Master Sergeant in the United States Army. He has lived an interesting life to say the least.
​
Rolando has lived all over the world including Baumholder Germany, Puerto Rico and spoke three languages by the time he was 8. He is an activist for the LGBTQ+ community and is involved with local LGBTQ+ non-profits here in Orlando Florida. His favorite super hero is Batgirl since she, like himself, is always underestimated and proves everyone wrong time and again. His favorite TV show is Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it is the reason he decided to pursue a career in writing, and why he loves character driven stories. He also likes chocolate.
