BIOGRAPHY

Photographer, Multitasker in Media & Visual Arts

Photographer(still and movie), Translator, Educator, pedagoge, Editor, Designer,…

We have to obtain all scopes of work so as to get it on, at the final approach.

Discovering the world, sometimes by being self educating, and sometimes by

photographing, no matter how, is pleasant for me.
