Screenwriter, director and actor.
I have loved films for as long as I can remember. In 2018, I began studying drama and performing arts, and during that time I also started writing stories. It did not take long for me to realise that if I wanted to tell them properly, I needed to learn how to write screenplays. It was in 2020 when I completed my first screenplay, Ávido.
I write feature films, with a particular interest in horror and dark humour, often in the same story. I write in English, Spanish, Catalan and Norwegian.
To date, I have written several screenplays, with my most notable work including two feature films and two short films.
Full scripts are available to producers and production companies on request.
