I was born in Madrid nov.1976 and I spent a small part of my childhood living in USA and Brussels. I started learning to paint from my mother, who is a painter, which is something that I have carried with me all my life. I was, as well, involved in (self taught) computer programming from an early age.

I studied architecture in the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (Spain). During the studies I lived in Chicago for a year where I enjoyed a grant to study in IIT. Also, in 2002, I was invited to do a video art project in the Biennale di Venezia d'Architettura, and collaborated in some competitions with different architectural studios.

After finishing the studies I moved for half a year to Berlin and later for a year to Paris, where I started working. I continued working as an architect at my return to Madrid, and did so for 3 years. At this time, I became involved with "La Fabrica, gestión cultural", and did several videos for them, also, I did a small amount of web pages.

In 2007, I was offered a grant to do my PhD in computer science and studied the Master of Research in Computer Science. I was a researcher in the Universidad Complutense of Madrid, in the Computer Science School from that date until June 2011.

In 2009 I taught a class of digital art (FIAC, Fundamentos Informáticos del Arte Contemporáneo) in the school of Computer Science. This field is nowadays, one of my biggest interest.

In 2010 I enjoyed another grant as part of my formation to work as a researcher in the Brunel University (London) for a small period of 3 months.

Recently, I have obtained a Ph.D. in computer science by the Universidad Complutense of Madrid.
