Born and raised in Santiago de Chile on November 21, 1993. Quiet and orderly child I went to a school called Sagrados Corazones de Manquehue where I spent my infancy, childhood and adolescence. Here I discovered that I liked video games because at this time came out many of the first 3d games revolutionizing the industry and children.

I have traveled to many countries throughout my life and lived with many different cultures in both arts and tastes.

When I left school in 2011 I knew that I liked the arts, humanities and music so I decided to study visual arts at the Diego Portales University believing that art was, in one way or another, more innocent and all this opened a world of possibilities. Although I enjoyed some subjects more than others, I achieved an affinity with art history and painting.

In between with some friends we created a puppet company whose particularity was that their shows were live musicals, I was the art director and I also performed singing. This lasted three years and then dissolved due to varied interests.

In 2017 I did my internship at Marcela Trujillo's workshop where I did the basics of her paintings, drawing and base color. I was there for a semester and learned a lot about painting and drawing. In addition to how an artist moves.

In this way I put together what I liked and did for my degree in early 2019 the work to which I have dedicated more time "Labyrinth of Pandora" a book-game of puzzles and riddles with a story in which characters of all kinds are developed by putting together what I learned in a work. This work continues to grow until today.

That same year was the social outbreak in Chile and then the pandemic. The first year I was in Santiago painting at home but the following year I went to live in the south of Chile, but not so much, to Pucón. There I met several local painters and painted several pictures because painting flows very well in that place.

In the summer of 2022 it occurred to me to exhibit my paintings in the streets of Pucon and it was a very pleasant experience to connect people who are not used to seeing art to see it. in this way I was able to talk about my work with different people and therefore different levels of perception and approach to the arts.
