Born in Mexico (1973).

Creatively, I’ve been focused on sound as a physical analogy of perception and the psyche. This has substantially informed my perception of sound as the complex physical phenomenon it is and its artistic and practical implications in music.

My music has been performed by the likes of the JACK Quartet, Fonema Consort, and the Dante+Chin Duo. Also by performers such as Séverine Ballón and Kathryn Schulmeister.

Among recent performances, Huellas (rasga la niebla un pájaro) (2019) was premiered in April of 2024 in St. Paul, MN by Alyssa Anderson (voice), Evan Fraser (flute) and Rebeccah Parker Downs (cello), as part of a selection for the 113 Composers’ collective 2023-24 season.

Doctor in Music (composition) from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), and Master in Music (composition) from the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP).

Professor of music in higher education programs since 2006, teaching music theory and composition courses in undergraduate and graduate programs. I also teach “Music Appreciation” and “Visual and Sound Culture” courses.
