Why did you begin studying music?
i did begin to study music at 14 years old when i heard some good guitarist in the internet and in some videos like joe perry, john pizzarelli, and no just jazz but rock too like stevie vai, john petrucci and jimi hendrix, so i was like 5 months before my birthday asking my dad to buy me a guitar but he never gave me an specific answer like “yes or no” but when my birthday arrived he surprised me with an acoustic guitar so i was very exited, like 5 months later one day my guitar was broken apparently because the bridge wasnt good to support the strings pressure, and i didnt even started to study music formaly yet… i was very upset but one day my aunt gave to me an acoustic guitar that was from my cousin and before that was from his grandpa, (its the guitar that i have today), so time after that i started to study music at the tecnologico de musica valencia “T.M.V”, and almost 2 years after i graduated from there ( exacly like one and a half year ), and now i want to perfect my guitar skills to be one of the best guitarist one day and even to learn to play more instruments if not all of them jaja… because i want to dedicate my life to the music, and a life dedicated to music its a life beautifully lived.
Who are some of your influences?

Who have you studied with?
i studied with some of the best teachers in the tmv including luis viera, marcos, and belkis and even with a teacher from another school which i got some summer classes with some friends named douglas… thanks to all of them
What would you like to do with music in the future?
