I have been actively involved in directing since 2002. Throughout my career, I have developed a particular fondness for the works of Beckett and Shakespeare, appreciating the delicate balance between silence and words that they offer.

Currently I´m the director of the Festival Shakespeare Buenos Aires and the Festival Shakespeare en la Escuela

I had the honor of establishing and serving as the director of the Festival Beckett Buenos Aires for a decade, from 2006 to 2015. This groundbreaking festival was the first of its kind worldwide, providing a platform for hundreds of artists and academics to showcase their work. It was truly an extraordinary and enriching experience. Link to Festival Beckett Buenos Aires.

In 2011, I took the initiative to establish the Festival Shakespeare Buenos Aires. Since its inception, we have been commemorating Shakespeare’s legacy annually, making it the sole Shakespearean festival in Latin America. Over the course of its editions, the festival has attracted an impressive attendance of over 250,000 individuals.  Link to Festival Shakespeare Buenos Aires.

The «Teatro Shakespeare» (Shakespeare Theatre) was initially constructed in 2013. This unique pop-up Elizabethan theatre was situated in various public parks throughout Buenos Aires. Over the course of its three seasons, the theatre attracted an impressive number of visitors, surpassing 300,000 attendees. Link to Teatro Shakespeare.

In 2014, 2015 and 2016 I produced and directed the Festival Shakespeare Uruguay, in Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay. Link to Festival Shakespeare Uruguay.

In 2015 I created the Festival Shakespeare en la Escuela (Shakespeare School Festival) and every year since then, hundreds of schools participate in it. Link to Festival Shakespeare en la Escuela.
