A professional tango dancer and teacher since 2010, they trained within the Sistema Dinzel, created by Rodolfo and Gloria Dinzel, a methodology centered on improvisation, technique, musicality, expression, communication, and movement dynamics. After seven years immersed in this system, they continued studying with a range of teachers in Buenos Aires and taught at institutions such as Studio Dinzel, C.E.T.B.A., and Escuela Mundial de Tango GE, also participating in major events like the Festival y Mundial de Tango de Buenos Aires. They have taught, performed, and served on juries at festivals and competitions across Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Uruguay, Mexico, and the United States.
