I was born in the imperial city of Cuzco in a district named Urcos. Its beauty is highlighted in the Plaza de Armas, and in its center there is a statue in honor of Túpac Amaru. Next to the plaza is the Urcos Church. This Catholic temple of Urcos is a beautiful stone construction where there is a mural painting known as ???The Baptism of Christ.??? I am very proud to belong to this beautiful city full of history and cultural magic. ???I consider myself to be a hardworking, honest, and very responsible man. I believe firmly that all of our efforts will reward us one day or another, but it is necessary to strive and be dedicated. One of my plans for the future is to become a renowned textile artist throughout Cuzco and Peru, as well as on an international level, growing as a business, team, and family. ???All of this began when I started working in a community named ???Servants of Saint Joseph??? in the district where I was born and raised. This community brought machines for weaving clothing, which surprised me, and I immediately wanted to learn about this art and everything that it could do. From the start, I did not doubt that it would be the activity that I would do all of my life, designing and creating clothing, seeing how my work would delight so many
