Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina
Date of Birth: December 2nd 1981
Been playing guitar since: 1993

I've always loved music. I remember me listening to my parent's albums of bands like The Rolling Stones, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Beatles, Mozart, Beethoven, Bach. but everything started when at the age of eleven a friend of mine made me listened AC/DC. Since that moment my wishes of playing guitar grow up day after day. Finally, when I was twelve years old I bought my first electric guitar. So, with my guitar in my hands I started the long way in learning music with different teachers, reading books, listening new bands and trying to play their songs.

When I was twenty years old I began my studies in local Institute of Classical Music, but only for two years.

At the same time I formed part of different bands. I played heavy metal, rock, progressive, jazz & soul, inclusive I'll performance in a The Police covers band. I'm still walking this road.

Playing and Influences
I really don't have a favorite band, guitarist or music style. I enjoy a lot listening to different styles from classical to the most extreme heavy music; I have a great time listening rock, blues, classical music, reggae, heavy metal, punk, soul, jazz, progressive rock, funk, etc.

About bands, I listen and enjoy the new ones but I pass a big part of the day listening the oldies like The Doors, Rolling Stones, Janis Joplin, etc.

About guitar players, I like Steve Vai, John Petrucci, Zakk Wylde, Slash, Marty Friedman; but I think all the guitarists have something to teach and appreciate.

At GMC:
I think GMC is a great place to share knowledge and information with a lot of great people. Here we are teachers and in the same time we are students, but the most important thing is we could meet new music friends. So, GMC is a great place to be.
