Nestled in the heart of Alajuela, Costa Rica, lies a quaint road known as Calle Vargas. This charming path winds its way towards the majestic Poás Volcano, a natural wonder that has long captivated the imagination of locals and visitors alike. The road itself is a testament to the rich cultural tapestry of the region, where tradition and nature intertwine seamlessly.
One vivid memory from my childhood stands out: At just eight years old, I walked hand-in-hand with my mother along this very road. During our stroll, she posed a question that would linger in my mind for years to come: "How would you like to live in a place where anything you can imagine exists?" At that moment, I envisioned a toy—only to realize it did not exist. But it was my eureke moment that I was a creator, and I could make anything I imagine…exist. The question ignited a passion within me. I began sketching my ideas, some of which materialized into tangible creations, while others remained in my notebook, awaiting their time.
Creativity and self-expression have been the cornerstone of my life—a realm where imagination is limitless, and every creation is a testament to the love and heritage that have shaped me. My entrepreneurial spirit ignited from our family's attempt to establish an office supply store, a venture that laid the foundation for my passion in business and sales. In today's digital age, the possibilities are boundless. I now white-label coffee and automate its resale, bridging tradition with innovation. Reflecting on this journey, it's awe-inspiring to consider how far the world has come since my ancestors embarked from Europe with a mission to sell coffee and bananas.
