Resident: New York, NY
At the age of 11, Frank appeared on the singing competition shows "Tengo Talento, Mucho Talento" and "La Voz Kids" as a Mariachi-style soloist. However, he also faced cyberbullying and assumptions about his sexuality as he was in the spotlight, making him hesitant to express himself due to his conservative upbringing. Music became his solace and he gained the confidence to embrace his true self over time. Eventually, Frank came out to his parents and received their full support. Frank's passion for music stemmed from his Grammy Award-winning musician father falling in love with Mariachi music. He performed extensively with his school's Mariachi band and cherished those experiences. During his senior year of high school in 2020, Frank became involved in social justice activism, establishing a Gay Straight Alliance chapter and organizing a successful pride festival. Frank now attends Columbia University and balances singing in his free time.
