I was born and raised in Peru. I arrived in the United States in December 2007. In 2013, when I found out I was going to be a father, I decided to attend college and seek a better future for my family. In 2020, I finally earned my professional degree in business administration. It was then that, in 2023, I made the decision to study taxation and be able to own my own franchise.
