    I am a Brooklyn based award-winning filmmaker and screenwriter, that moved to New York City in 2009 from my native Spain to fulfill my dream of working in film. 


    My film career started as script supervisor on well acclaimed films like iOrigins, Complete Unknown or the recent, White Noise by Noah Baumbach, as well as the HBO TV shows High Maintenance and The Flight Attendant. 


    I want to think that my artistic work focuses on the deepest layers of human behavior, humanizing characters who have often been misrepresented by the media.
