Sound for Media (Work Experience)

I graduated from the UCM (Universidad Complutense de Madrid) in 2004, with a degree in Journalism. I started my career in the radio industry working as a reporter, writer and audio technician (recording, editing and mixing the whole magazine) for broadcasting magazine called Fancine.

After several years specializing in sound at different schools (between the years 2002 and 2005) in 2008 I finally got my degree in Sound for Film at ECAM (Escuela de Cine y del Audiovisual de Madrid), obtaining a special distinction in my class that year.

In 2011, I set up my own audio postproduction facilities (Finding The Sound) where I work with my team as a Supervising Sound Editor, Sound Editor, Sound Designer and Re-Recording Mixer for feature films, documentaries, short films, commercials & others, depending on the project budget and production needs. Occasionally I work as a Foley artist and ADR Supervisor too.
