I learned what carpentry was when I was 11 years old, and when I was 13 I made my first piece of furniture. An uncle showed it to me. I liked woodwork a lot. I learned everything by trial and error. I love working; since I was a it has been an essential part of my life. Thank God I have always had job opportunities, even if they are few; I have many clients who trust in my art. A few years ago I linked my life to an extraordinary woman, Irma, who would be my life partner and who today is my happiness. This year, very suddenly, my wife suffered a heart attack.. Everything happened so fast--they were moments of great tension and anguish, not knowing what would happen. But God has never abandoned us, and my wife was able to come out of this event unscathed. Everything can change from one day to the next, which is why I appreciate every day that God gives us, in which I can see my and my wife awaken."
