Work Experience

Music composer at Timba games
May 22, 2023 - July 25, 2023
For the Meta VR game "Coaster Mania," developed by Timba Games, I was entrusted with the complete audio production for nine original musical pieces. My role encompassed composition, musical production, and performance as an instrumentalist. I also handled all the technical aspects of recording, editing, and final mixing within Pro Tools, ensuring each track met the highest quality standards and perfectly complemented the game's dynamic environments.
Music composer at La Cifra Impar
May 31, 2015 - October 31, 2021
For La Cifra Impar, a renowned Medellín-based audiovisual collective known for its innovative and high-end productions, I served as a key composer and music producer. Over the course of our collaboration, I created approximately 300 original musical pieces for a diverse range of projects. This extensive portfolio includes documentary series, corporate films, sound installations, advertising campaigns, and theatrical works. A highlight of this collaboration involved orchestrating and producing several pieces recorded with the prestigious Bratislava Symphony Orchestra (BSO), showcasing my ability to compose for large ensembles and manage complex, international recording sessions to achieve a cinematic sound.
Music composer at Pablo De La Fuente
May 2, 2023 - August 26, 2023
For the award-winning documentary pilot "The Power of One"—which focuses on the Colombian "Jaibazul" sanctuary, a forest rebuilt by a single individual that now protects endangered species while facing persistent threats—I was entrusted with the complete musical vision. As the Composer, Music Producer, and Music Editor, I developed the original score to mirror the narrative's dual essence: the hope of regeneration and the tension of imminent threat. My role encompassed all phases, from composition and production to the detailed editorial work of synchronizing the music with the film's powerful environmental storytelling.
