About Me

He was born in Buenos Aires city, but began his training in the province of Salta in folkloric dances and theatre. At the end of high school he travels to Buenos Aires to continue his education.

His interest as a creator leads him to enter in 2018 to the National University of San Martin in the "Bachelor of Performing Arts - Dance".

In 2023 he started the career of Opera Stage Direction at the ISATC (Institute of Advanced Studies in Art of Teatro Colon). He works directing and co-producing artistic projects within independent frameworks or festivals as well as giving private lessons of acting and dance to anyone who wants to be part in the scenic art. My journey has been guided by a strong set of soft skills that include: Artistic Vision, Adaptability, Communication, Leadership and Collaboration.
