Born in Medellin, Colombia but moved to Redondo Beach California at a young age. My dad is a cinematographer for the WSL and a few years ago introduced me to Stephanie Gilmore and Tatiana Weston-Webb. I hadn't surfed much but after Tati took me for a surf in Huntington beach for a womens rising tides event at the US Open I was total inspired to become a professional surfer. Now my future goals are to persue my dream of someday competing in the Olympics for Colombia.
