I started surfing at the age of 12, my first sport involving boards was snowboarding, we decided as a family to move to live on the beach and I became passionate about surfing, it was easy for me to start given my experience sliding in the snow, where I reached compete several times. Today I am dedicated 100% to surfing, competing on the WSL and Latin American Alas Pro Tour circuit. I have represented my country 6 times since I was 12 years old, obtaining medals in the 5 South American junior championships, which makes me very proud and happy to have the opportunity to compete representing Chile again, this time in my first Open ISA World Cup.
