I was born in Mendoza, Argentina, in 1992. At the age of 20, I moved to Buenos Aires to study Dance Performance and Choreographic Composition at the Universidad Nacional de las Artes. In 2016, I joined the university’s dance company under the direction of Roxana Grinstein, where I had the opportunity to work with renowned choreographers such as Gustavo Lesgart, Pablo Rotemberg, Josefina Gorostiza, Ayelén Clavín, Gerardo Litvak, Ramiro Soñez, Carla Rímola, Laura Figueiras, Federico Fontán, and Ramiro Cortez, among others.​​ In 2019, I relocated to Brussels to continue my artistic career, where I have since collaborated with choreographers such as Agostina D’Alessandro, Marcos Arriola, Marit Shirin, Elena Gambardella, Lola Vera, Julia Farber, and Juani Rossi.​
​
In recent years, my training has focused on improvisation and instant composition, studying with teachers such as Agostina D'Alessandro, David Zambrano, Rob Hayden, Julyen Hamilton, Edivaldo Ernesto, Vittoria de Ferrari, Jos Baker, Rakesh Sukesh and Fatou Traore, among others.​​ I also have a background in urban dance, particularly in street jazz and heels. I’ve participated in workshops with leading figures in each style, including Yanis Marshall, Malou Linders, Danielle Polanco, and Pedro Reis.​
​
My creations and research are deeply rooted in artivism, with a strong commitment to challenging dominant narratives and advocating for the representation of minorities and silenced communities. Drawing from decolonial studies and feminist theory, I explore themes such as migration, exile, displacement, and rootedness. My practice engages with the recovery and revalorization of ancestral knowledge and cosmovisions, especially focusing on the role of women. I work with materials from popular expressions, rituals, and folk dances to examine how these cultural forms shape both individual and collective identities.​​ To date, I’ve developed three performative essays as exercises in responding to identity questions, where these themes intertwine and are put into tension in specific ways: Ostende Ostende, Mientras Tango, and Marrona.​
​
Beyond dance, I hold a degree in Social Communication (UNCuyo), a Specialization in the Production of Critical and Media Texts for Art (UNA), and I completed a postgraduate seminar in Decolonial Aesthetics from the South: Art, Body, and Memory (CLACSO), as well as other courses in cultural project management, production, and communication (CCR).​
​
Alongside my artistic practice, I have contributed to several projects that provide learning opportunities, support, and mobility for artists, through roles in cultural coordination, communication, writing, and photography, including Próximamente Festival, the book Mundo de Bailarines, Les Sudakas Project, Summer Dance Camp, Travel & Dance, Nómade Dance Camp, and NY for Dancers.​
​
I’m also a certified Pilates instructor specializing in prenatal and postnatal care. In 2020 I became a Doula, and I’m currently in the final year of a Master’s Degree in Holistic Therapies. As a hobby, I enjoy singing lessons, writing poetry, and experimenting with photography.
