About us

I see myself as a person who is curious to learn every day, to take risks and to generate the greatest possible benefit for those around me.
I’ve learned that heritage isn’t limited to physical elements; I consider the most essential element of heritage to be the communities that inhabit these spaces and give meaning to their conformation.
Heritage is a whole, and I’m interested in how this heritage can generate a strong, sustainable social fabric.
Diploma in public administration – diploma in public accounting – specialization in development projects – candidate in the “smart cities” master’s program and student in tourism guidance, with international training in public administration (USA), tourism innovations (Israel) and sustainable heritage (France).
I’ve worked all my life developing projects in the public sector, first in the financial and economic fields, then in the tourism sector, where I’ve been working for over 10 years, in particular in the administration of the municipality of Sogamoso, generating continuous interaction with the province’s municipalities.

Current projects

Nature tourism focusing on moorlands, cultural tourism, in particular the revitalization of urban areas of heritage interest, university tourism focusing on archaeology.
