Bravo moved with his family from his native Peru to the United States as a teenager, settling in Sylmar, California. He played college soccer at Los Angeles Mission College from 2006 to 2009. He also played briefly with the San Fernando Valley Quakes in the USL Premier Development League in 2007.[1]
After playing and coaching for several years in various Los Angeles-area amateur leagues, Bravo turned professional when he signed with the expansion Los Angeles Blues of the new USL Professional League in February 2010. He made his professional debut - and scored his first professional goal - on April 15, 2011, in a 3–0 victory over Sevilla Puerto Rico[2]
