Mario Rodriguez was born in Montclair California and raised in Pomona. His father is Puerto Rican and his mother is Mexican. He was raised in humble beginnings mainly by his mother and his loving grandparents. Standing 6’3″ and 220lbs Mario was always a stand out athlete in football. He was recruited to play Division I Football but his life took a turn when he was given the surprise blessing that he was going to be a dad. Realizing the enormous responsibility of being a father he left everything to begin working a full time job to provide for his family and his son Jayson. Mario loves his son very much and enjoys spending as much free time with him as he can. Jayson has become his sole motivation in becoming a success. Being a role model for his son is the most important thing for Mario. He wants to make sure his son knows with hard work he can achieve all of his goals and dreams.
At the age of 23 Mario made a move to Orange County where he worked at Heat Ultra Lounge as a Host and Promoter. Mario really enjoyed the social interaction with all of the clubs patrons and began to get the entertainment bug. After several years in the club nightlife he decided to expand his social network and join Instagram. That decision really has taken Mario into the fast track of this very competitive industry. As fate would have it in 2013 he was discovered by acclaimed fashion designer Michael Costello. Mario was invited to walk the runway at LA Fashion Week and a star was born. Mario was featured in the LA Times and people began to take notice. Mario started being contacted by photographers and began doing many photo shoots. The response has been nothing short of extraordinary, his chiseled features really brings out a look that everyone wants in a male model.
