| Personal History | Lupe is the eldest of six children. She was raised in a small apartment in the Bronx with her parents and siblings. Life was good for her. As she got older, she spent a lot of time with her uncle at the shop he worked at. The young girl had a thing for motors. She got good a stripping a car, yet she was just as good at putting them back together. When she entered high school, she kept up working in Giuseppe’s garage, just under the table. Through her high school years, she was introduced to the chop shop side of the business. She was aware it was illegal, but it helped put food on the table of her parents home. In her senior year she met Carmine, who came on strong at first. After a few months, he made a complete change and was nicer to her. More respectful. She was no longer looked at like a trophy. Just after high school, She married Carmine. The two found a really tiny apartment in the Bronx. A year later she gave birth to all three kids. About that time Carmine ended up joining the Ghostbusters. While there, he moved into the station they had, only visiting her on the weekends. and after work hours. She moved in with her family, so they could help raise the kids. Carmine would visit daily, before their usual work hours. She also took classes at the community college so she could get a job in a real shop. Something that was totally legal. When the children turned four, the next set of triplets were born. Both Carmine and Lupe agreed no more children. When the elder children turned eight, Lupe joined the Ghostbusters as well. She joined as a mechanic, but was one of the few who held a part time status. Between working with the Ghostbusters, and raising six kids, her life was hectic. Life went on like this for many years When Carmine was transferred to Raleigh, North Carolina. Lupe decided she wanted to follow her husband. Her eldest three children were about to move on to college, so they stayed, while her younger three are moving to be close to their family.. So she put in for a transfer as a mechanic in Raleigh |
