From the west to the south of Mexico my roots see me born in Merida Yucatan where from there I begin to have direct contact with the indigenous and pre-Hispanic life with one of the most important civilizations of Mexico such as the Maya with the visual and sound. The contact of these regions saw me leave for the center of the country reaching the cold regions of the northern highlands of Puebla .... where I change from the Mayan ethnicity to the Nahuatl thanks to the work of my father and nomadic family I always had contact with different cultures in the south and center of the country all that was marking my route and my attention to the world of colors and shapes starting from the journey through all those places to then change to one of the places with greater tradition in indigenous culture and craftsmanship. of unusual characters where they mark a whole era full of folklore ... The tigers, the tlacololeros, the chinelos and the infinite colors in the state of Guerrero... Since I was a child I had contact with drawing and acrylic painting, graduated from the School of Arts at the University of Guadalajara with a degree in audiovisual arts, exhibiting in different places in Mexico, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Morelia, Leon, Aguascalientes, Puerto Vallarta and outside the country as Los Angeles, California, Hamburg, Germany, Barcelona, Spain and Paris, France.
