Sometimes, he talks too much and too long. This behaviour is heightened if he's had a few drinks.

overall history •Agustín was born and raised in Hickstead with his sister, Nina. His father and mother were Chilean immigrants, that started from nothing other than their knowledge of leather work. Thomas worked long hours, working the barns and the farmland before building his leather shop. Rosa cleaned homes and nannied. After long years of no business, they grew need of leather goods in riding, especially in western chaps.

Nina and Agustín were raised in the business of horses and leather. He wasn’t as into the riding aspect until his father took him to the yard. The excitement of seeing all the horses and the auctioneer, made Agustín want to explore the equine world outside of leather goods. He started riding religiously at the age of eight and never stopped.

While Agustín was flourishing, his sister Nina took a dark turn. She began stealing from the family and the business. The family would later learn she had a growing drug addiction after she nearly overdosed in her car. Sadly, Nina and her then-boyfriend were charged with a murder robbery after three years of sobriety. Her addiction got the best of her.

It was a grueling period for the family, with things getting worse when Nina gave birth in prison to a baby girl. The child was a complete surprise and needed immediate care as she was born pre-mature. Due to her current state, Nina was suggested that she sign full custody of her child to her parents, which she did.

Agustín grew attached to his niece, Isidora, raising her as his own. While she is legally his niece, she feels like a daughter. Isidora is the reason Agustín met his wife, Ora. Ora was Izzy’s pre-school teacher. After years of friendship and failed relationships, the two began dating. They were married after three years.

Izzy is a thriving young woman, excelling in the western field. She works at the leather shop at the counter as she makes her way through school. Ora is still teaching, helping her husband at the shop when needed.

Agustín is living his best life, as he continues the work his father started. He went to auctioneer school and started at the yard, something he had been wanting to do for a while. While he works hard, he makes sure to make time for his family.
