I was born in Cartago - Nariño the 10th of August 1972. The year of 1997 together with my parents and brothers we determined to go to the state of Huila to work as coffee pickers, after some months we made a family decision, we bought a farm of 7 hectares in stubble, by the time with a big effort we made productive in coffee and as my parents are per tradition coffee producers this project was success for the whole family.
When the time passes my parents and brothers decided to sell or buy the pieces of land corresponding, in my case I choose to sell my part and with that money I bought the farm that I have today in the village La Guandinosa. I wear coffee in my blood and I am positive that to be a coffee producer is my profession and my farm is an enterprise that gives a lot of benefits to several people providing employee. I hope at the same time that my two children a boy and a girl feel the same love about the farm and become excellent professionals related to the agribusiness so we don´t loss the family coffee tradition.
I got divorce some years ago, and actually with my children who are a very important part of this Enterprise, we are in commitment to do the right things for our enterprise. The farm is 6.5 hectares in coffee which are in renovation process with resistant varieties against the rust; my highest longings are to be able to grow more coffee and the quality life of my family. Thanks to coffee I have had the opportunity of being recognized as a coffee grower of the municipality because I had the opportunity of participate in several Cup of Excellence competitions and I being always in the national winners. At the same time I being participating in local contest coffee contest and one of them I was the first winner, which made me be sample of hard work, perseverance and consistency to improve the quality coffee that we produce in our farm, to be able to do the right things also offers me the capability of offering better things to the future of my family.
