Pedro De La Cruz was born in Sabana Grande de Boyá, Dominican Republic, on January 11, 2002, and is a fraternal twin of his brother Elly. While his brother Elly would become a professional baseball sensation, Pedro's journey was just as interesting. At a young age, Pedro revealed his hardworking nature and entrepreneurial spirit. Elly reached the baseball diamond while Pedro set his sights on business and community service. These divergent interests would form the foundation for where both brothers are today, personally and professionally.
Family Dynamics
The De La Cruz family is warm and supportive. Despite following different career paths, Pedro and Elly have a good relationship. Their relationship with one another speaks to their unbreakable familial bonds, which have only served as inspirations and motivators for the two brothers.
Pedro talks lovingly and proudly about his brother's success in baseball. Pedro compliments Elly by making jokes about her being much taller than he is since she towers over him at 6-foot-5, while Pedro stands around 5'8. The twins say this difference makes for a joke around the family, with people frequently wanting to see birth certificates from their parents, who were accused of lying about having identical sons.
Career Highlights
He began his own car wash franchise in Sabana Grande de Boyá at age 21, where "Pedro's Boutique" was renowned for its services as they quickly became known as a premier location for all spans and competition.
Personal Interests
Pedro has more interests than his entrepreneurial activities. He is an active member of the Wichita community and frequently coordinates events for charitable causes. Pedro also enjoys looking for new business opportunities and sports practice in his free time. Now retired, he's an ardent baseball follower and continues attending games to support his brother.
Relationship with Elly
The brothers keep in touch, though the sheer physical distance, time differences, and Elly's demands from his burgeoning baseball career can sometimes slow down talks. They can use the lessons they have learned, share their knowledge, and pitch in to assist with issues unique to one another.
Pedro also isn't overshadowed by Elly's newfound stardom. Instead, it has showcased the De La Cruz family members just doing what they are naturally good at. Pedro would always describe Elly as his inspiration, mentioning how humble and dedicated his other Brother is, qualities that Pedro holds onto every day for the rest of his life.
Notable Achievements
With his business, Pedro earns a living and has established himself as a fixture in the neighborhood. His success and work to bring his vision of Dominican products onto a global stage have made him known as one of the most promising young business leaders in The Dominican Republic.
Knowing how successful his twin brother is, Pedro remains bullish about his modest life achievements. While he builds his business and gives back to the kids in his community, Pedro is a reminder that there are no limits to what can be achieved with hard work and a take-action attitude.
