He studied and played bass for one year in diverse groups and also in Saluzzi Family. But his real passion came at the age of 17, after a frustrated pass for the career of guitar in the General San Marín Conservatoire of Buenos Aires, very influenced by the American guitarist Al DiMeola, who donated one of his acoustic guitars and woke up in himself the stimulus of the taste for the instrument.
