I act as a channel to bring in the voices of those who are committed to sustainable development cooperation because of their personal experiences of migration. It energises me to know that I am here because I have worked hard. I am motivated to share our life experiences as tangible examples of hope.

My superpower is my ability to create valuable connections between different people, roles, goals and opportunities. I also have extensive knowledge of the MEG’s offers for the diaspora, as well as an interdisciplinary profile. 

I am the father of a 7-year-old Berlin girl and as an entrepreneur I commute between Germany and Colombia. I have worked in the humanitarian aid development sector and in refugee aid. I am also a member of Kunstrial e.V., a non-profit organisation based in Berlin dedicated to promoting intercultural and artistic exchange between Germany and Colombia.
