  8. A: There is a project of which I am proud to have worked Artist Production ,Recording, Mixing & Mastering. A song called "Oleaje" by local artist León Sanchez. It was quite a challenge when recording each acoustic element of the song working with excellent musicians and having recorded for the first time a double bass. which brought me a lot of learning in every session, made me improve as much as a musician as a sound engineer.

  12.

  13. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  14. A: I will work motivated , seeing the work as a challenge to improve myself in each session both personally and technically, leaving all my effort to make that work a unique sound story.

  15. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  16. A: What I find most fascinating in my work is to be able to listen to the artist in his maximum expression within the studio, to listen in detail to the instrument, to recognize the feeling that is reaching me , listen to the instrument and how it is propagating in the air to be able to choose my brush ( microphone ) and represent it in the digital world in the purest possible way. I find it challenging and motivating every day.
