Personal Information

Born in the country of the best coffee, Colombia

I have been a sportsman all my life. Since the age of six I participated in a lot of competitions. Starting in athletics, then in basketball, then in martial arts and now mountain biking. Winning many medals in each sport.

In 2005 we formed Team Aguila with Larry Pardieu . We started as a small team riding with our neighbors. We were riding every Saturday, starting between 5am and 6 am, to be able to fulfill our personal commitments.

My first race was on a trail called “Broken Oak" in Waco, TX. It was a Texas Series race, where I placed 10th. That first race I realized that I have a good potential in this sport. Keeping in mind that I never practiced this sport before, I felt super well and I decided to participate in many other races.

I had the honor to recruit and train with good racers in our team, like Jorge A Munoz and John Cantu among others
 
As USA National qualify in many times. My goal is participate in national races and help other to do it.
