Although I was always a creative child, I began to be interested in photography around the age of 15. I studied Audiovisual Communication at the University of A Coruña and then did a Master's Degree in Advertising and Fashion Photography at the TAI School of Arts. At present I have turned the creation of images into my profession and I do quite diverse jobs: sessions with individuals, work with agencies, digital retouching, etc. in addition to selling personal work.
I am interested in many things about photography and the visual, for years I have been very interested in portraiture as a way of communicating stories and concepts, even though I am always open to any format or medium. Right now I am very interested in mixing photography with other forms of visual expression and how to use them to play with my identity and that of others.
I often find inspiration both within my field and outside of it. I love reading, listening to music, nonsense on the internet, ladies' things, cats and capybaras, and I'm always educating myself through courses and workshops as well as books, articles, watching other people's work or even YouTube videos. .
Projects
- Self IIIThis is a serie of self portraits I made through a time where I had need of a way to accept my body and see my self in a more confortable way. I made different series of portraits in different ways in those days when I felt less confident. I personally think this series in particular express pretty well the point of my life in which I was.

Hand in hand with several colleagues, we created this creative studio and began to work with different brands. Within Estudio Desastre my work focused on the audiovisual field (photography and video), always parallel to the development of creative concepts. I also carried out a wide range of tasks, such as management tasks, both for the company and the product, working on organizational methodologies or generating content for social networks.
