About

Biography

As a cardiac anesthesiologist, I specialize in pediatric and congenital cardiac anesthesia. I provide anesthesia and perioperative care for patients with congenital heart defects who are undergoing surgery.

I was drawn to cardiac anesthesia by the highly complex and challenging cases. I enjoy being able to help people in their most difficult moments. Patients and their families always come first. Their preferences and goals direct our care.

I'm originally from Bogota, Colombia. My family, especially my son, are the driving force of my life and career.
