It all began September 2004 when I caught the ferry to the island of Tenerife with the sole intention of completing my last two years of university in a program dedicated to Marine Biology. However, everything changed. My discovery wasn’t the marine depths of the Canary Islands, but rather a sport that would change my life. Change my philosophy of life, my dreams and my objectives completely. Windsurfing.

In a short period of time the fun turned into a passion and then the passion became an Ambition.

It didn’t take me long to realise that I wanted to take it a bit further, to dedicate myself professionally to windsurfing. I realized that I didn’t want anything else as much as this. I wanted to give myself the chance to try it. It didn’t matter how much it was going to cost me, nor the difficulties that could present themselves. It was my dream and I would work hard for it!
