When I was 14 years old I moved to Sacramento. I am from San Francisco , I was born & raised in San Francisco.




When I moved I asked my mom
“Why do we have to move?” She Replies , “ It’s best for us”. Growing up in San Francisco is like you living in heaven. Sometimes it can be very rough. It also can be a very beautiful city to visit. I like the city because of the great weather & because I lived there almost my whole life.


The main reason I moved was because of the violence. Growing up it was a lot of violence. I’ve seen a lot of crazy stuff. I seen men get killed right in front of my eyes. I have also gotten shot at. I Have lost a lot of people the streets. My Dad died when I was 8 years old. It was really sad & crazy because I was really young. He was shot & killed in San Francisco. I also lost my older brother. When I was 12 years old my brother got killed in San Francisco too. My brother was only 19 years old when he died. He was shot . I was devastated when I got the news that he passed away. My aunt told me, “Ty I know your gonna be sad & mad , but your brother passed today .”
