I am a music student with an emphasis on violin, at the Fundación Universitaria Bellas Artes, under the chair of maestro Juan Rodrigo Velazquez, a member of the Medellín Academy of Ancient Music, first violin in the Colombian Youth Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of the maestro Carlos Erazo, and professor at the Intersoul music academy. I began my musical training in the Network of Music Schools of Medellín. I was part of the Aburrá Valley Metropolitan Philharmonic Orchestra between 2019 and 2022 with which I toured nationally and internationally. I have been awarded a scholarship twice (2018 and 2022) to participate in the Semana de las Cuerdas festival where I received violin classes with the teachers Sheila Gómez (Spain), and Erika Ramallo (Spain). I received an honorable mention in the 2022-1 semester at the music faculty for academic performance. I have received violin master classes with teachers Santiago Medina, Clara Rojas, Javier Pinell (Bolivia); Baroque violin with Laura Fierro, and chamber music with Cristian Restrepo, and Ilonka Rus (Romania-USA). I have also been a volunteer in music teaching projects with EAFIT social, La Visitación Foundation, and the Emberá Chamí Philharmonic Orchestra, a project of the Pasión Y Corazón Foundation.
