IN HIS WORDS

Tell us about your work at Oax Sport?
I manage business development at Oax Sport. My work is mainly focused on the business side of the agency. I manage marketing, promotion and media. I maintain relationships with donors who support the nonprofit. I conduct market research and develop strategies to attract and engage our fans and followers.

Goals for Oax Sport?
My plan for the next three years is to maintain the revenue stream and financial support to develop and support Oaxacan athletes. We need money to follow our plans and participate in national and international competitions. My job is to make sure we always have enough financial income to move forward and support our athletes.

What was your start in athletics like?
I started running in 2015 when I moved to Minot, North Dakota to study. The climate and parks were ideal for outdoor activities. I started running and increased my mileage gradually until I was able to run a marathon.

Tell us your best sports career memory?
Always the first marathon is special, mine was in 2018 at Grand Forks Marathon. I think I can still remember every km of that race. Then, in 2019, I started running long-distance trail races and they have their own unique experience. Running the 277km of The Pescado de Montezuma relay through 5 Mexican states is something you can’t experience in any other race.

Sports goals?
Run all the international races in Mexico and continue to get personal records year after year.

What is your 2023 goal?
