Recording Engineer, Producer, Songwriter
I am a recording engineer, producer, and songwriter originally both from Peru and Italy. Moving to London, I honed my craft as a sound engineer under the mentorship of Mikko Gordon, Sean Woodlock, and Nick Powell at Goldsmiths Music Studios.
Currently, I work as an Assistant Engineer at the renowned Lightship95 Studios. I began as an intern under Giles Barret and Dave Holmes, where I gained invaluable experience with industry-standard engineering practices and developed the skills to navigate professional environments and commercial sessions with confidence. I also currently contribute to projects at Studio Highwater, ZigZag Studios and Alcanfores Estudio.
Over the years, I’ve been part of a wide variety of recording sessions, from large-scale live band setups to intimate acoustic projects. My deep connection with Jazz recordings, in particular, has shaped my approach to capturing the soul and authenticity of live performances.
My musical background as a flautist playing Jazz and Classical music provides me with a versatile ear and a strong foundation for crafting compelling sonic landscapes. This has informed my work as both an engineer and a creative collaborator, allowing me to easily adapt to different genres and artistic visions.
I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with incredible artists both in London and internationally, including Brisa, Allexa Nava, Maya Endo, Lilaac, Alia Lowers, and many others. Whether behind the console or in the songwriting process, I strive to bring each artist's unique vision to life and create music that resonates deeply.
