  • Most memorable Next-Level Performance

    When I first played Barcelona - Spain, giving a Master Class about my first book of Afrovenezuelan Rhythms for Drumset. It was an unforgettable experience!

  • What Drives Your Creativity?

    My creativity increases, every time I can see how the rhythms of Venezuela merge with the different genres of world music and new sounds can be created.

  • Why do you choose Vic Firth?

    I chose Vic Firth because since I started my journey in the drums, it was the first pair of drumsticks that came to my hands and it was love at first sight and my favorite drumsticks are the Maple AH5A for its balance and warm sound in the cymbals and the cross stick
