About

I am a highly motivated and engaging artist. I am driven through a thirst for knowledge and new and innovative ways of working.

I have spent over twenty years in the creative industries developing my skill set as an actor, writer and director. I have developed in different sectors: from independent productions, international theatre festivals and contemporary dance to mainstream performance venues and television (TV).

In theatre, I have taken part in many productions performed internationally, in cities of United Kingdom (London and Brighton), Chile (Santiago, Iquique, Puerto Montt and Valparaiso, among many others), and at international theatre festivals in Colombia (Ibero-American Theater Festival, Bogotá) and in Germany (STÜCKE Festival, Mülheim and Frankfurt).

My experience in Acting also took me to work in TV publicity and primetime TV shows for Sony Pictures, TVN (Televisión Nacional de Chile), MEGA (Megavisión) and CHV (Chilevisión), among other networks and production companies. I long participated in several TV productions, such as: advertising, soap operas, miniseries, and sitcoms.

I am now looking to further my skills set with new and exciting projects that will motivate me engage me in new ways.
