Being the oldest of two sets of twins has put Quincy in a position of leadership from a very young age. Growing up in a naval family, he was blessed to see many areas of the country. While never being in any area to really establish real roots, once he and his twin brother, Quintin, entered high school his father decided that they would settle in Corpus Christi, Texas.

In 2007, Quincy moved to the Northern Cheyenne Reservation to attend Chief Dull Knife College in Lame Deer, Montana. In 2009, he would enlist into the United States Army as a Motor Transport Operator and would deploy to Iraq, Afghanistan & Liberia.
