Music Producer & Mix Engineer
Musician & Songwriter

As a Music Producer and Mixer, I consider myself as a versatile professional who enjoys always a new challenge. Although as an artist I worked mainly within the pop and latin pop music, my influences vary from metal and rock to pop, urban... I started producing bands at a very young age. My first professional recording studio was a tiny room in México. Luckily, as my band grew, I had the chance to invest and buy gear so that I could grow as well as a Producer and keep learning... Today, I am happy to be able to spend most of my time working in my studio, Deville Garden (Deville Music)

As a Songwriter and Guitarplayer, I have had the chance to enjoy amazing moments: from being recognized by the Latin Grammys with two nominations and receiving the Latin Grammy Award in 2007 to a Grammy Award in 2009. One of the best moments I have lived as a musician and a songwriter, has been having the opportunity to play my songs at the Madison Square Garden in NY, the American Airlines Arena (Miami), the Staples Center (Los Angeles), Gibson Theater (Los Angeles), Coliseum (Puerto Rico), Auditorio de México, Las Ventas (Madrid)...

I love music, and I´m eager to share new experiences with artists, producers and musicians all over the world.
Let´s make some music!
