Carlos is a native of Miami, Florida. He began his color guard journey in 8th grade at Miami Senior High School and continued to be a member from 2015-2018. He also performed with the South Miami High School winter guard in 2018. He then transferred over to Hialeah High School for his junior and senior years, in which he served as captain his senior year.
After high school, he had a hiatus due to the pandemic and reignited his color guard journey with the FIU Marching Band in 2021 and 2022. He was also a part of the FIU Winterguard organization and was a member of FIU Gold in 2022 where he won a gold medal in the WGI Independent A class category.
Aside from working with various color guard groups within Miami-Dade County, Carlos was also a part of the instructional staff for Coral Reef High School’s inaugural winter guard in 2022-2023.
When not teaching guard, Carlos is either in Disney World making delightful memories with family and friends or wearing a green apron and handcrafting coffee drinks at Starbucks.
Carlos is very excited to be a part of the Gladiator Family and share his knowledge and passion for color guard with the Gladiator Color Guard!
