He became interested in the sport after watching a 5-a-side match at the 2012 Paralympic Games in London. "I really liked what I saw on TV that day, so I started to get informed and contacted the Spanish National Organisation of the Blind [ONCE]. I tried it and they liked what they saw in me. I enjoyed the experience and the rest is history." (Athlete, 23 Aug 2021; elpais.com, 10 Oct 2019; efe.com, 12 Jun 2018)

OCCUPATION
He has worked for a music production company in Madrid, Spain, but he took some time away from the role to focus on the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo. "I try to combine my job with the sport, although it is not easy due to the number of days we are abroad during the year. Until the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo I am devoted 100% to the sport and then I plan on retiring. I am old enough to start thinking about building a stable life."
