Sunfish Coach Nacional
I started sailing in an optimist at the age of 7, later I sailed national and international regattas. I sailed optimist until I was 15 and then I started laser 4.7, radial and kiteboarding. I compete in multiple regattas and events. I started as a monitor of the Antioquia sailing league, later I graduated as a Professional in sport and continue as a Coach. Coach in Antioquia, some events with the Colombian National Team, and in international clubs such as Key Biscayne Yatch Club (Miami), Rush Creek Yatch Club (Texas), Costa Palmas Yatch Club (Los Cabos).
