I was born in Santiago, Chile in a cold August in South America, in the middle of a government coup that resulted in a 17 year dictatorship by Augusto Pinochet. Chile’s winter is bitterly cold, yet I always felt the warmest love around me, especially from friends and family who raised me and taught me timeless values. I loved my childhood very much and I am so fortunate to have such beautiful stories to tell. I always gravitated towards the arts; even at an early age when featured in school plays and flute recitals. In the afternoons, I was a member of my local acting youth group performing at a local church for people. My family, already relocated in the US, would be a constant reminder that my days in Chile were counted. In the 90’s, I relocated to Miami, FL.
Arriving in the US was literally a rebirth for me. New weather, new friends, new everything. While I focused on learning the language, with the help of some incredible people I met along the way, I became involved in theater and singing and was lucky to be featured in a number of productions with people far more talented than me. I feasted in the joy of applause, and was fortunate to receive local and state recognition. I loved the rush and the anticipation of a performance, and while I was terrified on stage, I was always up for the challenge.
Fast forward a couple decades, and I find myself having a sincere appreciation and love for the city of Miami which I am honored to call my hometown. A father of four incredible kids who teach me more than I teach them, I see how they care about me, and it feels amazing. For the past few years, I have focused all my creative energy to the incredibly rewarding task of filming love stories . Understanding the dynamics of a wedding day and mixing light and sound to create a short film has been one of the greatest accomplishments of my life. I am forever grateful to all those who support my craft. It is my greatest honor to get a chance to tell the story of a couple's wedding day through a motion picture.
