Braulio K Martinez: Make It or Die Trying!

Braulio K Martinez, was born October 11, 1989.

He was raised in the Bronx, NY. As a child,

Braulio had a big dream, which was to manage

and own his own company. But as the years

approach, the dream's light and the hope to

accomplish what he wanted so bad, was

dimming out gradually. It was hard to

fullfil his goal, not only because he was young,

but because the street life was calling him.

Although he wanted to focus and continue a

positive path, it wasn't easy to stayed away from the

negative aspects of society.

Braulio, as an older brother, had many responsibilities.

Therefore, at the age of 15 he started to work at the

New York City Library. Mr. Martinez was a working man

who was always accountable for his own actions and goals.

His tagline was always to strive for what he wanted and never

give up until he gets it.

Unfortunately, On November 2008, the tagline became

invisible, Braulio got arrested and received 5 months sentence.

On March 2009, he was released with the hopes of never going

back as he stated, "that was going to be the last time anyone

would take my freedom away." After the rough 5 months, Braulio

landed a job at Night Train magazine, where he was able to meet

celebrities such as Whoopie Goldberg. Later, Whoopie saw

his potential and became one of his sponsors.

As the flame of freedom and growth stood strong,

there was something missing that he wanted to do

so much, his own non-profit company. In an action to

help models, upcoming singers/rappers, photographers,

he created "KVYBETV." This new company mission

was to help out those who are talented and are limited to services

and resources due to their background.

Braulio believes, "that the modeling industry is a

very competitivespot to be, specially for new

coming models with little or no experience...this

database was set up for real life models, agencies,

and photographersto interact with one another to

gain trust, share ideas and helpful trips,and work together

to develop some of the best models the industry canoffer."

In August 2010, Braulio started a new company called,

The 500 Club,which main goal is to create events.

Braulio K. Martinez has come a verylong way and

there is still more to come. He currently attends ASA College.

He has an Associate Degree in business and now going for his Bachelor's .
