Rodolfo, or Rodolfo Ruiz Rosales Sosa Figueroa, Jr. as we like to call
him, joined see see eye in the spring of 2003 after realizing that
entering the priesthood would require severe adjustments to his
lifestyle. He opted for a different career path and earned a
B.A. in marketing from Georgia State University.
Born in
Hospital Roosevelt in Ciudad Guatemala, Guatemala, Rodolfo came to the
U.S. at the tender age of eight. Though he has embraced the North
American lifestyle (i.e., baseball, beer and burgers), Rodolfo has fond
memories of his days in Guatemala and often reminisces about family
trips through the Guatemalan jungle to visit his Tio Chepe a.k.a. "El
Machete" en la carcel. He also retains a fierce loyalty to his hometown
futbol team, Los Cremas, against whom the evil Los Rojos do not stand a
chance.
A lifelong sports fanatic and former star outfielder,
the highlight of Rodolfo's baseball career came when he was named
Player of the Year and honored with an all-you-can-eat pizza party at
Chuck E. Cheese. When he's not updating schedules or cranking out press
releases, Rodolfo enjoys watching the Braves (especially when they're
pounding the Yankees) and Thrashers (he claims he's Metro Atlanta's
only Hispanic ice hockey fan) and lobbying against the destruction of
Guatemalan forests by mansion-building rock stars.
