I was born in Argentina and grew up in Bolivia. Currently I am studying computer programming at the GTI School in Gothenburg, Sweden.

I am also a salsa instructor and choreographer on L.A. and Cuban styles. Salsa is my passion and addiction since I started dancing six years ago.

Three years ago, I danced with “ Fuerza Rica” salsa dance group and performed different shows with them in several congresses.

I have worked with Patrik Ollas on a joyful disco/salsa choreography presented at different places of Gothenburg, at the “Salsa Festival 2007” in Munich, Germany, and at the “Hot Salsa Weekend 2007 “in Stockholm, Sweden.

Together with Daniela Torres I performed at the Scandinavian Salsa Congress 2006.

I have also choreographed shows for a couple of dancegroups for the carneval in Hammarkullen.

In spring 2007 I started to work with Nina Kollbrunner, with whom I won a salsa competition in Gothenburg and a week later the second place in the Swedish National salsa championship (SM-2007) in Stockholm, Sweden.
On September 2007 I and Nina won the Scandinavian classification to the third World Salsa Competition in Orlando Florida USA.There we finished in twelfth place.
