Born in Medellin, Colombia, i was born to Carlos Alvarez and Lina Osorio. At a very young age i moved to New York where i lived there for about 10 years.

After 4 years with them, i then followed to pursue my soccer career playing with several professional soccer clubs which involved NY Red Bulls, Galatasaray, Atletico Madrid, Everton and Chelsea Fc. After retiring, i ended up marrying my college girlfriend Taylor Edison where we are currently living our happy life in Denver, Colorado.
