A native of Alamo, California, Mario is a graduate of San Ramon Valley High School, where he played football. He began his career in basketball as a student manager at CCSF, eventually earning a scholarship to Texas Tech University to serve as a student manager under Hall of Fame coach Bob Knight, working closely with current Ole Miss Head Coach Chris Beard.

Before returning to CCSF, Mario spent a season at the University of San Francisco as the Assistant Director of Basketball Operations for the women’s basketball program.
