Xavier Galindo immigrated from Peru to San Francisco at the age of 15 escaping the turmoil of a country suffering from human rights violations and guerrilla warfare. As an emancipated teenager, he submerged himself deeply into the San Francisco Latino culture in both positive and negative realms. This provided him with a rich understanding of the San Francisco experience for Latinos.

While studying at San Francisco State University, he was approached by a casting director for a television show. Xavier dove deep into the world of acting and from there he was able to find his true passion; WRITING and DIRECTING. His first project was picked to represent San Francisco State University in a national college competition.
