Steveo Michel was raised in the most notorious neighbourhood in Orlando. The conditions in the apartment complex were on par with those in a third world Country. Despite the challenges Steveo faced, with the guidance from his mother and some key mentors, he was accepted to Colorado State University on a football scholarship. After graduating, he made the decision to become a firefighter and requested to be assigned to the station that protects his old community.
