ABOUT ME

My name is Omar Garcia. Born and raised in Chicago. Mexican by blood. Part time school. Full time Insurance consultant.

I'm very outgoing, always up for a new adventure! I like to stay positive, and help others.

I'm a big sports fan, and live in a city (Chicago) where the love runs deep.

I love music of ALL kinds. I like to DJ on the side, and bust some moves haha.
