mateo's mom dipped when he was seven, his dad dipped when he was ten, stating that it was too hard. so he ended up living at his grandmother's with his three other cousins, and siblings.
he left another small town in california for charming. his jobs for the cartel started out small, like most. he had done a few illegal things back in his home town, but it really didn't amp up until he joined the cartel. he didn't particularly intend to become a hitman but it was the perfect fit for him. he's calm under pressure, emotionally distant and willing which is the perfect mix for his job. killing people is not a natural talent for him but he has gotten much better at his job. he did almost botch his first one, though.
he rationalizes his work as necessary. he sees it as how he pays his bills. he doesn't enjoy that part of his job, of course, but it's a necessary evil.
his job as a bartender is partly for cover and partly because he likes the rhythm of it. his job gives him a sense of normalcy and also a place to hide in plain sight. no one suspects a bartender. right?
mateo's deeply loyal to a few people which means that he's suspicious of most. his trust issues run deep, thanks to his parents, so he doesn't really like to let people in. but when you're in, you're in.
