About me

Hi! since I can remember, Art and Design were my preferred ways of expression, I've always been drawing and painting so 7 years ago I've decided to start my professional career as a visual developer. I've studied fine arts in Madrid and as soon as I could I've moved to London to study a Masters degree in film design.

My objective is to push the reality to the next level, immersing the audience in my world through their emotions. In order to do that, I've developed a strong style and workflow that allows my team and me to reach all our goals within the department. I had the opportunity to start from below as assistant of great Art directors and Designers as Astrid Sieben or Isobel Dunhill and also had the mentorship of JP Kelly. Finally, this last two years I have developed my own projects as Art director and Production Designer for experienced directors as Ray Kilby, Laurence Barraclough or Joanns Buncelmans.

I am mainly interested in the development of projects from the pre-production stage using Art as an essential tool to push for the best result. Treat the film as an Art piece capable of touching the soul and create emotions in the audience. Also, optimize the technical resources and work efficiently within the Art Department.
