In 1988 Humeres became New York's first professional skateboarder appearing in commercials, TV shows, advertisements, narrating skateboard videos and writing magazine articles for Thrasher magazine. In the June 1989 issue of Transworld Skateboarding he was featured as a rising talent in Check Out. He appeared along with Harold Hunter and other skateboarders in an October 1989 Thrasher magazine photo essay that helped put New York City on the national skateboarding map.

He was part owner of "Skate N.Y.C." skateshop next to Tompkins Square Park, New York City.

Humeres grew up in Nyack, New York and started skateboarding at age 11. In 1977 he and other kids from Nyack and nearby Hudson River towns formed a group of skateboarders called the "Skateboard Wizards" which competed in contests in the Northeast, gave exhibitions at the Nanuet Theatre-Go-Round, and frequented Skate-Away Skateboard Arena, an indoor skatepark in Nanuet, New York.
