Family

I am a young pro kitesurfer born and raised in Cabarete-Dominican Republic, which is known as the Kiteboarding capitol of the world.

I am one of the youngest members of an accomplished kiteboarding family of five. I have a younger sister Madelyn and three older brothers, Raul, Kelvin, and Ariel, which have or still compete today on the world tour.

Kitesurfing

I began to kitesurf at a young age with the guidance of my elder brothers. Like my family, right away, I developed a feverish passion for this new sport. Soon after I also started having the desire to one day travel and compete around the world like my brothers. Therefore they started to help me train to accomplish my dream career.

Pro Kitesurfer

I landed my first sponsorship with a kiteboard brand in 2014, began competing on the junior tour, and finished N#1 the same year. In 2016 I obtained a new sponsorship with RRD – Roberto Ricci Designs to compete on the new WKL – World Kiteboarding League pro tour. Only attending 3 events of the whole last season, for my first pro tour, I finished each time in the top 6, and I was crowned 2016 WKL rookie of the year. For 2017 my burning desire is to stand on the overall champions podium of the WKL tour.
