Mr. Trigo hails from San Diego, Texas, a small South Texas town halfway between Corpus Christi and Laredo, where he started his career teaching for 9 years at San Diego HS and MS then for 3 years at Gregory-Portland JH. After attending the University of Texas at Austin under scholarship as he studied Electrical Engineering, Mr. Trigo went on to serve in the U.S. Air Force where he was named 13th Air Force Airman of the Year.

Mr. Trigo, a rock and roll guitar player converted Choir Director, also plays contemporary guitar for his church, and still plays rock and roll on occasion with his band all across the state. He still lives a large family home life, as he is extremely close (like 8 miles apart) with his daughter, her fiancée, and his inspirations, his 3 grandkids, Silas (15-the HS baseball player and HUGE Astros fan), Karley (13-who sings in her grandpa’s Varsity Girls Choir) and little Dolph (4-who keeps Popo busy every Saturday when he babysits!).
