Most teenagers remember the day they got their license, or their sweet 16, or even prom night. For Diego the most prominent day he remembers is In 2002, when Diego showed up on Pastor Aaron Blake's steps. At that moment in time with all of Diego's emotions sky high, Blake stopped Diego at the door and told him to lose any foster care mentality that he has. He went on to tell him, “You are not a foster child; you are 'Engrafted' into my family." A lesson taught but not learned until almost 10 years later when Diego was 24 years old living out what it means to be “Engrafted”.

In 2014 Diego released his second studio album titled “ENGRAFTED”, that was Ranked #1 album locally on Reverbnation, #22 in the nation, and also #25 around the globe, and was nominated as "Artist" and "Best Song of the Year." Diego released his Engrafted Music Video July 2015, and the video and song have aired across the world on multiple radio stations and different sites such as: www.familylifetoday.com, www.christianalliancefororphans.
