The author was born and raised in Northern California.

The author experienced a challenging childhood. Riddled with abuse, neglect, and witnessing violence first-hand, De’Kari’s early years were dark and pained. Due to the dysfunction that surrounded him, he was often uprooted and moved from place to place. After various placements with relatives, he found himself in foster care. He eventually turned to the streets which consequently led to a lot of bad choices. In turn, those bad choices led to youth authority, jail & prison.

There is more to this author than the street-life. He always had a love for writing. In school, he excelled in creative writing. He would always live-out the story as he was writing. Through his most difficult times, he used writing as a way to escape from his surroundings.
