I was born in Florida, and I learned to surf in Cuyagua and Anare in Venezuela, I spent every summer and every winter there, it's paradise. 


In South Florida, where I lived, there were barely waves, I usually jumped to the Ocean with my trainer, close to the Cruise Port in Fort Lauderdale, and surfed the waves that the Cruise Ships made.  it was gnarly and fun. 

I surfed Cocoa Beach, New Smyrna and Jupiter Beach local competitions, and won many of them so it was time to make a change and my father moved to Costa Rica. 

Since I was 10 years old, I would stay the majority of the year in Costa Rica and Nicaragua to be able to surf every day. Then at 13, I became National Champion in Costa Rica.  

During the pandemic I moved to California and then competed in the NSSA, Junior SouthAmerican circuits and International Rip Curl Grom Search. 

At 16 I started to compete in the WSL South American Region, ISA Juniors and ISA World. And I keep training between Brasil, Central America and California. 

I invite everybody to surf in South America, there are many beautiful places and warm happy people! 

I am so excited to be representing Venezuela in the ISA World Surfing Games this year.
