¡Hola!
As a Madrileño and avid city dweller, I find joy in the arts, crafting vegan delicacies for friends, indulging in long walks, and embarking on adventurous travels. With over two decades of experience in media, particularly as a photographer and videographer, I've cultivated a passion for storytelling. Beyond the lens, I derive immense satisfaction from working with wood, crafting designs, and collaborating on artist books as half of This Book Is True publishing house. Moreover, nothing fulfills me more than forging connections and nurturing new relationships. As an artist, I aspire to engage with contemporary social issues through an interdisciplinary lens, striving to provoke thought and inspire change.
