My passion

"Helping others has always been my passion. I think that if each of us, with love, offers honest help, we can make substantial changes in our communities. Growing up in a context like Colombia gave me the possibility to understand distinct factors that can change our way of life. Still, the most important learning has been the resilience that we have and the amazing ability to recover.

Each person is unique, made up of their own cultural characteristics, experiences, and beliefs. I am here to guide and support whoever is interested in starting their own journey building a life worth living."
