I grew up on Dantooine, the son of two farmers. When I was a teenager, I started to fall in with the wrong crowd. I was rebellious and didn't want to follow in my parents' footsteps. I fell in with the wrong crowd and was caught by authorities during an attempted spice run. I spent ten years in a Republic Prison. When I was released, I got a job at the local cantina, and I was good at it. I started to build a new life for myself, and  became known as a dependable and trustworthy guy.
