Mario, a native of San Francisco, was born "in the year of our lord nineteen hundred seventy nine"(H. Thompson). At the tender age of three months, he was whisked away from the shores of the shores of the Bay Area and spent the next four years & change in the third world paradise known as Managua, Nicaragua. He also spent a year in Lima, Peru before returning to the City. The next few years were spent in several institutions, including Long Fellow Elementary, Epiphany School, Archbishop Riordan High School, Academy of Art University, and City College of San Francisco. Mario currently lives in the Lakeview district of San Francisco and is pursuing a career as a writer. When asked to name a few artistic influences, Mario was quoted as saying: "Fuck, that shit'll take forever. Ask me later man".
