2013 and in his search for an alternative he got in touch with the newly formed charter team of Students For Liberty in Bolivia, that’s when he got interested in liberty ideas and got involved with SFL. He became a member and was amongst the first generation of Local Coordinators in Bolivia, he was also the Regional Director for Bolivia in 2016 a member of the Latin America Executive Board and the International Executive Board.

He joined EsLibertad Staff in 2019 and is in charge of overseeing events and goals.

On Students For Liberty: “Joining SFL was one of the best decisions I’ve taken, I learned so many things I wasn’t able to during my university years, due to biases in education and the leaning to socialism in my country. I feel Students For Liberty has a lot to do, but I believe we have the best people in the right places to do so.”

Students For Liberty is the largest pro-liberty student organization in the world.
