“I love working at Soltara because I feel it is the type of work that really represents who I am, and that is making the people around me feel happy and well cared.”
I, born and raised in Costa Rica, come from both Costa Rican oceans – Pacific and Atlantic. My father is from Guanacaste, along the Pacific Ocean, and my mother is from Limón, along the Caribbean Atlantic. As such, I consider myself a son of the ocean, and love living a lifestyle that represents that, enjoying the ocean and taking care of it as much as I can, and sharing that same feeling with my wife and children. Since I was a young boy, my family traveled all over Costa Rican coasts, camping and living life “pura vida” style. My biggest passion is my family, I have 1 daughter and 1 son, and my second biggest passion is surfing. I have been an avid surfer since I was 18 years old.
I have worked in tourism for the last 8 years in different positions and areas around Costa Rica. I studied tourism and cooking as my careers. I have worked in restaurants, tour operations, and hotels. At Soltara, I wear many hats, managing local operations, including our maintenance, housekeeping, kitchen, and security teams, always working to ensure smooth experience for our guests and team, and beautifying the Soltara grounds with more plants, projects, and love! My passion, dedication, and attention to detail form the backbone of our center’s operations, and we are grateful for my easy smile, warm heart, and commitment to high quality in everything I do.
