About me

Since I was very young I was haunted by storytelling, which drove me to write several stories --and occasionally shot them when I had access to a camera-- during my school years. After completing my high school studies, I studied philosophy at the 'Universidad de los Andes' in order to get more ideas and conceptual tools for making stories. I graduated cum laude, presenting a thesis about cinema entitled ‘Towards a Political Art Through Cinema’, which was later published by the University. Then, I worked in the local film industry for two years as cameraman and editor, and later as an Art History teacher. I moved to the US in 2014 to pursue my MFA in Cinema Directing in Columbia College Chicago, which I finished in 2016. I have written and directed several short films. One of them titled Family Meal (2015) won the Audience Choice Award at the Chicago REEL Shorts International Film Festival in 2015.
