I was born on January 5th, 1979 in Booth Memorial Hospital in Flushing, Queens, New York to my mother Martha Guerrero may she rest in peace I love you mami, and my father Tito Jose Soto who lives in Bogota, Colombia. I am very proud to be latino and my roots. Soy un BARRANQUILLERO que baila AREBATAO. I lived in New York until I reached the age of fifteen, then we moved to Hollywood Florida, and I have been here ever since. Eventhough I miss NY alot I have found FL to be my second home. My parents seperated at the age of 9, I am proud to say that I had a wonderful woman in my life which I consider to be my hero. She is now my angel in heaven looking over me everyday. I wouldnt be the man I am today if it was not her for her.
I became interested in Lambda Theta Phi my fourth semester at FIU. Which FL used to be one full sector. Not two, yea brothers remember that! This was in the Fall of 1998. Unfortunatly, I did not have the time to pledge since my work schedule and family priorites took alot of my plate as well as a new position at FIU which I was offered. I have always been involved on campus such as SGA PR representative, Freshman Senator and many other postions on campus at FIU. Greatfully I was blessed and I was offered a full-time position at FIU which allowed me to get my Cert. in Higher Educational Advising in the Fall of 2000. In the Spring of 2001, I started classes at Nova Southeastern University and worked in NSU as an administrator for the university. I have worked and at NSU and currently still employeed at NSU as the Recruitment Officer for the College of Osteopathic and Dental Medicine.
I pledged for Lambda Theta Phi with Beta Xi chapter; Florida Atlantic University in the Spring of 2002. I am proud to say that I am Beta Gamma's "FIRST" ACE; and only one representing NSU. It was a difficult road but I would do it again in a heart beat. My line's name was the "Archangels of the REALM" I was known in my chapter as "EL GUERRERO". I am proud of my chapter, and proud of how it has grown within the past couple of years. Love you all brothers!
I can write forever on how I feel regarding my chapter as well as the organization. If I were to describe this organization in 5 words they would be Brotherhood, Unity, Fuerza, Respect and Chivalry.
I am "A Lambda Till the Day I Die!"
