Juan Carlos has also participated in the Collection Box Series, which raises money for different charities. He has performed in numerous venues around the country, including Seattle and Minnesota.

He also discusses growing up Dominican-American and points out how it’s different from “traditional” American culture, while also poking fun at his own interracial relationfbship. He comments on healthcare, gentrification and the rising cost of living in NY. Juan Carlos shares his story of growing up in the Bronx, as a Dominican- American American. Juan didn’t speak english when he first started school, and grew up in a non english home, all of which shaped his experiences and made him who he is today.
