Passionate Venezuelan-American cellist, currently pursuing masters degree in Cello Performance at The San Francisco Conservatory of Music.
I specialize in different varieties of music, such as classical, jazz, pop, rock, christmas songs, tango, romantic songs, video game soundtracks, religious hymns, and disney songs.
I’ve played cello for over 12 years now, in those 12 years I’ve had big opportunities, such as, playing with the National Youth Orchestra of Venezuela, participated in various masterclass, played with the FSYO (Florida Symphony Youth Orchestra). I frequently perform solo music, chamber music, orchestral excerpts, improvisations, etc.

Venezuelan-American Cellist.
I have been playing cello for over thirteen years. My passion for music started at an early stage when I got to play my first concert with an orchestra. El Sistema (music system in Venezuela) played a big role in my formation as a cellist. I always loved competing and also connecting with other fellow musicians.
I studied cello at the Simón Bolívar Conservatory for three years. One of the most important moments of my life was when I moved out to the U.S in 2015, since then I have received masterclasses with teachers from UCF, FIA, Eastman, UC, SFCM, and Stetson University.
I will continue my studies at The San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where I will be able to grow as a musician and as a cellist. I’m a very passionate and expressive player who is always on the look for musical projects!
I would usually need a chair, but I’m good as long as I get good instructions of the event and the expectations that I have to meet for the event.

I have been influenced by my cello teachers, and world class soloists such as Yo-Yo Ma, Rostropovich, Pablo Casals and Jacqueline DuPre.
