I begin to study drums in the year of 1994 in the Instituto de Capacitación Musical with Alex Camacho, and later on I taked private lessons with rock drummer Brian Bonilla. In the year of 1999 I started studying with drummer Mauricio Gámez a graduated from Los Angeles Music Academy (L.A.M.A.) and I was the first student who concludes his professional program for drummers. As a complement, I had taken piano, bass and music theory lessons during the years. I worked as a drum and music theory instructor in Música y Misiones, Conservatorio Faro de Caribe, Modern Music School, In Nova music school and private lessons. I had been member of several bands through the years, some of them are: Oasis de Esperanza (Gospel), Proyecto Abraham (Rock), Antigona (Proggressive Metal), Mekatelyu (Reggae Roots), Northern (Latin-Jazz Ensemble), Blue Jazz (Jazz, Bossa nova and RnB), Ice breakers - Smirnoff Ice project of the brewery of Costa Rica (Electronic), Luna Di Vietro (Rock) and Time’s forgotten (Progressive) among others. I had the pleasure of touring Spain, Portugal, Mexico and Costa Rica.
