Morris Mendez - Renaissance Man
Born in Birmingham, England of Jamaican and Spanish descent, Morris Mendez is one of six brothers and three sisters. “Mo,” as he likes to be called, is a resident of Bloomfield, Connecticut. He is a graduate of Connecticut State University, and currently works in the clinical psychiatric field. His avocation includes playing double bass instrument, traveling and learning foreign languages, personal training, art and acting.
Mo’s, personal mantra and firm belief, “is that through hard work, dreams can be accomplished … when you are properly prepared to work for it, success is the outcome.”
He has been greatly shaped and blessed through an eclectic background by having the privilege of growing up in three different continents, thus the influence, support and love of those around him. His personal experiences has also helped develop his inner sanctity and karma, that has transcended through all aspects of his life and this is evident.
Our quintessential modern day renaissance man, has been able to use the patience he has learned from his position as an art instructor to children with developmental difficulties. He has always responded with the compassion and understanding needed to work in the psychiatric field to his best advantage. This industrious worker has a zest for life that is equally matched with his vivid interest in acting, modeling and the arts.
Mo has been regionally and nationally recognized in the competitive natural bodybuilding arena, with various competitive appearances competing in Musclemania Atlantic in 2000 winning the light heavyweight division and overall title and in the Superbody World Championships placing second in the light heavyweight which have all aired on ESPN 2.
Mo then returned to Musclemania Atlantic stage in 2002 to win the light heavyweight title again, and now in 2003 we look forward to a new heavyweight Morris Mendez with more muscle on his fantastic physique to take the natural bodybuilding world by storm.
