I was born on October 7, 1997, in Bogota, Colombia. During my first years I lived in a
house with my parents, at the age of four we went to live somewhere else. I went to study
in 2004 at the gimnasio monseñor manuel María camargo school. Also in this year I
started to train soccer. I graduated in 2015. In 2015 I stopped playing soccer due to an
injury, which prevented me from continuing to train professionally in the lower classes of
the Real Madrid club in Spain. in 2016 the cop entered the university, study Social

enter the Colombian air force as an officer. I am currently preparing physically for the tests
