About

Professional summary

I am an experienced drummer and audio-trained music professional based in Mexico City, with more than 20 years of live and studio experience. I combine a musician’s ear for rhythm, tone, pacing, and delivery with disciplined technical session management.

I help speakers and performers feel comfortable in front of a microphone. I use clear, friendly communication and practical coaching to support natural, conversational delivery in scripted and unscripted recording scenarios.

I have formal audio training through a Diploma in Audio from Escuela Sala de Audio. My strengths include critical listening, microphone technique, soundcheck practice, and identifying recording issues such as noise, buzz, plosives, level inconsistencies, and balance problems.

I have supported live productions by working directly with performers, production teams, monitor engineers, and front-of-house engineers. I am comfortable handling fast changeovers, equipment maintenance, setup logistics, and real-time troubleshooting under pressure.

I also bring over 20 years of experience in IT audit and technology risk. This background has strengthened my ability to follow protocols, document work carefully, maintain quality standards, and solve problems methodically.

As a native Spanish speaker with professional working English proficiency, I can communicate effectively with contributors and production teams in multilingual environments. I am particularly interested in audio, voice recording, live sound support, and music-related technical work.
