About

I am a professional musician and composer based in Barcelona, with a strong background in teaching, transcription, and digital notation. I work with Guitar Pro 7 and MuseScore, applying a trained ear to identify instruments, harmonies, and playing techniques across a wide range of recordings. I perform both electric and acoustic guitar, study music theory and orchestration, and strive to deliver precise tabs and scores that help fellow musicians learn and perform at their best.

My work spans performing, teaching, and composing for independent projects and collaborative bands. I enjoy creating educational materials and original music that engage listeners and students alike, and I continually refine my transcriptions and arrangements to maintain technical accuracy and musical expression.
