About Me

As a kid I was one of the most imaginative in my family. I always loved to create and make stories. That's how I see the world to this day. I would draw little skits and comics about the adventures my plushies would have in alternate universes.

​

​

When I was nine years old my dad took me and my siblings to watch a brand new movie that has just come out. The name of that movie was Bolt. I was excited cause I've always loved Pixar's films but once I sat down and I saw the first act of the movie, my world was changed forever and I told myself "I want to do that when I grow up! I want to be a storyteller".

When I turned six years old I started to gain an interest in playing music, specially learning the violin. My parents scraped up enough money to buy me a violin and take me to private classes. From there I continued telling stories with my music, having in mind that one day I will be able to compose my own music for my own animations.

Once I had eight teen years old, I had to make a decision on what I wanted to do as a career. I've always been drawing since I could remember and every time I heard stories or watched cartoons that resonated with me, made me realize that I wanted to connect with other's in a unique way. And I wanted to make them feel how I felt whenever I connected emotionally with a character, so I decided to study a Bachelors Degree on 3D Animation, Visualization, and Interactivity and a Minor in Graphic Design at the University of Sacred Heart, at Santurce, Puerto Rico.

After I finished my bachelors, I decided to partake on a project where me and a friend of mine would submit our animation Spring Cleaning to a film festival. 

To this day, through animation, music, and photography, I do my best to show people how beautiful the world is, and the stories that are behind each and every one of us.
