    Q: What do you do for a living?

    A: My family owns sugar cane plants, where we make sugar and also ethanol fuel for cars. I’m the president of our company, Usina Alto Alegre, and I work for the board. I meet with the partners and owners of the company once a month. My brother Jose is the CEO, and he runs the company.

    Q: How much does your job allow you to rope?

    A: I ride and rope every day. We raise about 30 colts every year, so they keep me busy.

    Q: So you mostly heel?

    Yes, now.
