My journey into photography began at 3 years old, with my mother’s Olympus camera and countless hours spent watching nature documentaries with my grandfather, dreaming of sharing the world through a camera.
For a while, I put this dream aside, convinced that my insecurities would stop me from making it happen....
Over the years, my love for nature encouraged me to face some fears. For four years, I immersed myself in skydiving, then surfing and climbing, trying to fully experience the three elements and explore the connection I had with nature.
It was during the pandemic that photography and nature became my way of healing. With my father’s old Zenit film camera, I began to explore myself and my passion more seriously.
Rediscovering photography pushed me out of my comfort zone and into traveling. It started with a road trip across Iceland, then continued in Namibia, where I transitioned to digital photography.
For the first time, I was able to live what I had always dreamt of.
But reality soon set in, and I needed a job.
Relying on my degree in space engineering, I moved to Valencia, where I co-published a scientific paper and worked on designing rigging and anti-vibration systems for prestigious boats like the America’s Cup ones.
In those two years in Spain, I took part in the Red Bull Flugtag 2024... yes, the one where people build flying machines and launch themselves into the water.
What began as a playful challenge soon turned into something more meaningful:
I started documenting the process, connecting with photographers at the event, and realizing how strongly photography kept pulling me back, no matter where I was or what I was doing.

Even while living an exciting life, I realized something essential: I wasn’t being true to myself.
Engineering kept me confined to an office, while what I truly longed for was out there, waiting to be told through my eye.
That realization marked a turning point.
I chose to step away from the safe path and dedicate myself fully to photography, studying, working, and building experience one step at a time. Today, I continue to travel and explore, committed to using photography as my voice.
