Biography

I was born in Caracas in 1962, and from a very young age, I knew my passion lay in engineering. In 1985, I graduated as a mechanical engineer from Simón Bolívar University, marking the beginning of a career dedicated to the creation and leadership of projects. During my early years, I had the opportunity to participate in public and private infrastructure projects, solidifying my experience in developing innovative solutions.

In 1999, I took the big step of founding Desarrollos Industriales APS99, C.A., a company that has remained a benchmark in the industrial sector thanks to its focus on efficiency and quality. Since then, my path as an entrepreneur has led me to explore new opportunities and face challenges that I have always approached with passion and commitment.

Currently, as CEO of Agropecuaria Isla de Coche, I lead one of the most prominent companies in shrimp farming in Nueva Esparta. Under my leadership, the company has undertaken an ambitious expansion process, incorporating advanced technology to ensure a product of the highest quality. Beyond production, I take pride in the positive impact our company has on the local community, creating jobs and fostering economic development in the region.

With a clear vision for the future, my goal is to position Agropecuaria Isla de Coche as a global benchmark in the shrimp industry, combining sustainability, innovation, and social commitment. My story reflects my belief that every step, no matter how small, builds great achievements.
