I'm a Colombian Psychologist and Social Worker highly committed to working with families, children and communities. Also founder member of the non-profit Apapacho (www.apapacho.com.co) where with my friends we are working toward the promotion of welfare of children and families both in the U.S and Latinamerica.

I love playing the guitar, the drum, listening to music from all around the world, cinema and hiking. Currently I'm moving to San Francisco to work in Felton Institute and I'm searching for making connections with local people and creating community as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I fulfilled one of my dreams, which was to become a Social Worker in the University of Michigan after winning a scholarship with the School of Social Work. Another fulfilled dream was to create the non-profit Apapacho Foundation that now is working toward the welfare of children and Families in Colombia and Latinoamerica. 
Finally, one of the greatest things I've done was to visit the absolutely amazing Cotopaxi en Ecuador. Definitely one of the most beautiful landscapes that I've ever seen. 

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach from what I have found and learned in life, beyond my career I am passionate about music, art, social work and education. Anything left on this spectrum is something I'll always be interested in both learning about and sharing.

Music, literature, recipes, experiences and my joy and that others have given me are things that I am always willing to share.
