His immediate boss, upon seeing the photos of the tours that Mr. Robert made, inspired him to take the staff of the company, he was also enthusiastic about forming a cycling team. The dream of his life was to buy land in the mountainous area of the city of Merida to build his house because he fell in love with this city. His talent and knowledge inspired him to work with wood carvings. His first handcrafted figures were the lamps that he designed for his house without using screws, it consisted of an assembly technique. After this he was perfecting the techniques and he himself elaborated his work tools, each one for a particular use. Among his creations are: A portrait in Wood Carving of Mrs. Ana Julia which he elaborated 10 times, Hosannas position figures, Aikido figures, The Dancing Couple, Japanese Lamps, Incense Lamps, Endemic and Migratory Birds Figures, The portrait of Simon Diaz, The Marian Triptych, The Frontino Bear among many more and any carving that people ask him for.
