Training

I have a solid foundation in acting, with both national and international training. I completed the Actor Training Program at Estudi Nancy Tuñón in Barcelona (2005–2008). I later participated in the Professional Actors Masterclass in Los Angeles (2015), training with top casting directors like Sharon Bialy, Lisa Beach, Carol Goldwasser and many others. I have also taken courses in acting on camera (with Pep Armengol and Lluïsa Castell), acting in English (with Luci Lenox), and dramatic conflict strategies (with Pau Carrió). More recently, I’ve explored physical and contemporary approaches through the Laboratorio de Insurrección Artística (Andrea Jiménez, 2023).
