In 2007, he enrolled at the University of Chihuahua to study medicine and graduated as a doctor in 2012. After graduation, he decided to minister to the Tarahumara Indians, where he served as a medical missionary. Practicing medicine in the clinic, he worked on the nutrition research protocol for Tarahumara children, opening doors to minister in three different communities.
In 2015, he founded a shelter for people from the tribe in Cuauhtemoc, Chihuahua. They provided lodging services, meals, education, and evangelization at this location.
At the end of 2020, God moved him from the mission field to a leadership role in mobilization in missions in Mexico and the world.

The bible verse that motivates him the most in his walk with God is: “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:8 (NIV)
