On a more professional subject, I started working with video when I was 16. From there I learned and worked my way through movie producers, broadcast, game studios, marketing agencies and the music industry. My expertise in storytelling and 3D animation took me to my current role as an animator at Ready4Player, where I focus on animation and video editing for cinematic and commercial purposes.

My set of skills, experience, knowledge of tools and versatility is unique. Over the years I’ve worked my way to be not only a great video producer but also a strong writer, content creator, animator, designer and problem-solver. I’m a great asset to have not only on a video or animation team but on any position that requires strong visual narrative skills, with the right balance between creativity and technical expertise.

Outside the workplace you may find me playing video games, tattooing myself, customizing motorcycles, mastering tabletop rpg or just hanging out with my cats.

A B O U T

Born in the 90's, I'm deeply passionate about learning new things and doing them with my bare hands (and head). I was always drawn to a more cinematic and artistic approach on life: drawing everywhere, playing different instruments, learning new languages, and of course, taking DIY to the insane level. I tried to balance that with a Master's Degree in Astrophysics, but it actually boosted my creativity with programming and math modeling skills.
