ABOUT



Music producer/composer + editor.​


I've most recently worked as an assistant editor for HETV series and documentary films (The Night Manager S2, The Lost Children, ​Star Wars: Andor S1 & S2), helping editors with sound design and cutting temp music. And I have composed music for short films and commercials, including En Mi Alma (Austin Film Festival 2022), I Am Mackenzie (LFF & SXSW 2019), Tooth and Nail (SXSW & Vimeo Staff Picks 2018), directed by Sara Shaw (Problemista, Appropriate Behaviour) and produced by Mollye Asher (Nomadland, Bird, The Rider).


I grew up in Venezuela, attended film school at The University of Texas at Austin and later studied sound and music for media at Brooklyn College’s Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema. Since moving to Europe, I've lived in Copenhagen, Madrid, and London, where I'm now based.
