Born in Bogota, Colombia, I came to the U.S. at the age of 22 and studied to become a professional photographer. I accomplished my goal and was successful as a press photographer, freelancing for numerous magazines, civic entities, and publicity companies.

In 1997, I was hired as Road Manager by the International Salsa Singer, Rey Ruiz. For seven years I traveled the world acquiring vast experience in dealing with all sorts of financial and cultural situations. During my time as a business and artistic organizer, Rey and I were invited to the White House in 2002 as part of a special event commemorating the tragedy of 9-11.

I became a licensed real estate agent in 2004 and quickly gained success with Century 21 where I was awarded “Top Listing Agent” and the “Ruby Award”. In 2006, I furthered my career by becoming a licensed broker and opening my own company, “Florida Professional Realty,” in 2007. For three years, I was sustained by the support and loyalty of my clients.

Reacting to the ups and downs of the market, I started my studies in the Real Estate International Market and returned to my roots by re-affiliating with CENTURY 21 World Connection in 2024.
