CURRENT MISSION

Make the most of my life on this planet, meet interesting people, learning about myself, learn music, help where I can..

ABOUT ME

I am a Colombian, born in a small town called Sogamoso in Colombia. I have lived in the US for 15 years. I am a social worker/musician.

PHILOSOPHY
Maya Angelou says it very well: “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
I try to live the moment and get to know myself a little. I enjoy small things and live simply.
