I was Born in Bogotá, Colombia, I moved to Los Angeles with my parents at a young age. From the age of 13, I worked weekends and vacations in the family business, which specialized in the aerospace industry. This experience ignited my entrepreneurial spirit. Over the years, I have ventured into several businesses. Ranging from the telecommunications industry to document destruction (shredding) and now a law firm focusing on housing and personal injury. Not all have been successful, however, all have been a learning experience.
As an entrepreneurial lawyer with over two decades of independent law practice, I have honed a deep-seated passion for advocating on behalf of disadvantaged communities. This commitment not only defines my career but also enriches my professional journey, driving me to deliver impactful legal solutions where they are most needed. Outside of my professional life, I am an avid boater, kayaker and hiker. These activities let me connect with nature but also provide a respite from my busy law practice.
