Jordi is the epitome of defying the odds! He has been through a troubled past not only due to his parents’ broken marriage, but also due to thechallenges he faced because of dyslexia.Yet, with firm belief in himself, he pledged to overcome his ordeals, and he has successfully done so. He turned to YouTube, not only for entertainment, but as a means to deal with the problems he was dealing with. He put his mind to it and in a couple of years earned himself a permanent position amongst the topmost on YouTube. He created his channel in 2008, when he used to mainly watch videos and later he uploaded his first videoof the ‘Call of Duty’ game play in 2011. However, after a couple of months he stopped uploading videos, this was because the new computer that he had saved up for, had been delivered with malfunctioning parts and so he took time to set up his new computer. Finally in 2012, he once again began uploading videos, but this time daily.Overnight, some of his videos went viral and people started subscribing in huge numbers. Today he has millions of subscribers! Once he completed his high school, he took up YouTube full-time.

His motto in life is to never give up and to keep trying until you achieves your goal. With his perseverance he has set a staunch example for others. He has paved the way for children with differences to believe in themselves and live their dreams. Though he has seen rough times, he has left them all behind and has embraced life with optimism.
