My favorite verb is "to learn". I love to know new things, new people, new places, new stories because it allows to me to see the world with different perspectives.
I am a happy 28 years old Colombian. I am passionate about the life, I love to live in the way of give everything of me to the things that I love as my family and friends, my country, my job and the connection with myself through the arts -specially dancing and playing music-, be in touch with the nature, yoga and meditation, working out and TRAVELING.
I can define my life purpose as delivering social impact creating a more equitable society and I am working in it through a social business that is improving access to healthcare services for low income families in Colombia (Bive). For this reason I have been involved in social business movement and community work in differents ways through my social business and working as volunteer in different organizations, for example recently in a non-formal education program for children in low income communities of my city. As well I have been volunteer in entrepreneurship organizations as Yunus Social Business (Social entrepreneursip) and leadership organizations as AIESEC.
