August 25th/2009 was the date that changed my life. That day I was with my mates before work. Armed men arrived at the place and shot one of my friends. During the attack, a projectile hit my spine causing me to lose the mobility of my legs.
Losing the mobility Being a young worker and a sportsman was very shocking to me. I found support to move on with my families and friends, however, in 2010 I knew a partner which will give me continuous motivation: Social Networks
Understanding the methodology and being able to surf on social networks allowed me to know other life stories that push me to learn and live with my disability. Thanks to the supporting groups for people with disabilities I was able to connect with a vast of examples related to self- overcoming around the world. They convinced me to set my life on the road to sports and education. Social networks allow me to start a new path.

Through social networks I met different stories, thanks to that I was able to prove myself that I could achieve any goal that I set. I started to think in new goals to my life and for my family as well. Therefore, I decided to assist just for curiosity to an archery training given by the ADA Foundation and from the Archery League from Antioquia and I could not believe the nature ability I have to learn the sport technique.
That was the way I found the sport I love. Just by training six months I presented to the Nationals games achieving two national records of distance, becoming the revelation athlete of Paralympic Archery in Colombia. In few months I improved my level and overcome my records and becoming part of the archery group with huge probabilities to attend to TOKIO 2020.
Currently and thanks to the ADA Foundation I use the virtual platforms to train and be in shape to achieve my dream: Participate n the Paralympic Games leaving the name of my country high.
