Edwin was raised in a predominately working class community situated between Flatbush Avenue and Borough Park. He lived in a tough urban environment but was taught the importance of hard work and education from an early age.. One of the unique aspects of Edwin’s practice is his ability to share his knowledge and experience with residents from Latino communities around Southern California.
