Miguel Rocha began archery when he was 12 years old. In the beginning, it was about mimicking his favorite superheroes, but as he grew older, the sport became second nature. Competing in local events with Olympic aspirations, Rocha honed his skills to become a master of the sport. Now in his late 20’s, archery has become more of a hobby than a career. Even so, he practices regularly to retain the skills he developed growing up. He is a writer, father, and always and forever an archer.
