Miguel was raised in Norfolk, an urban community in Louisville, Kentucky, where the streets shaped his earliest experiences and taught him some of life’s hardest lessons. After serving a combined fourteen years in prison, he returned home determined to change—but old habits pulled him back, and the cycle of the streets continued until a near-fatal shooting forced him to face the truth.
Tired of the pain, violence, and the empty promises of the drug game, Miguel made a powerful decision: to walk away from the life that nearly cost him everything and step into a new purpose. He turned to the page instead of the streets, transforming his struggles into stories and his past into purpose.
Today, Miguel is not only an author—he’s a father, a storyteller, and a voice for the streets. A voice for anyone fighting to rise above the weight of their circumstances. His work reflects raw honesty, hard-earned wisdom, and the belief that redemption is possible for anyone willing to rewrite their own narrative.
