About me.

My name is Uvaldo Alvarado, I born in Sonora, Mexico, but I did not live there much of my childhood. I lived instead outside the city of Culiacan, in Sinaloan state in Mexico, for thirteen years. I spend six years attending grade school in Sinaloa, but after that I went to live to Tijuana, Mexico where continued my studies for three years. Finally, I came to live in California, I have lived here for thirteen years. I have both studied and worked in California, going to the adult school, and even getting my GED, in 1999. In 2002 I started to work night shift at Foster Farms, a huge chicken meat processing factory, and to study by day but I eventually I had to leave the school to keep the factory job. Now I'm back to school, and I hope this time finish the classes that I'm taking because I'm tired of working at more recent job where I remove junk on a tire recycling conveyer belt for eight and a half hours a day. Almost thirty years old, I still live with my parents, and look toward the day when I can have my own family. I have four sisters and two brothers some of whom live with me in our Atwater home.
