Hope
“Hope or the mysterious ways of god”, a musical staged in Bamenda, Cameroon, and in Herchen-Wittenberg.
Actor · Director · Trainer
More than thirty years on stage, on screen and in the rehearsal room, from Bogotá to Germany.
I tell stories that reach people, and bring the craft of the stage to the academics, researchers and speakers who need it.
Actor, director and trainer
“Which skills can I pass on as an actor, and who benefits from them?”
These questions came to me when I moved from Colombia to Germany in 2015, at the age of 41. Behind me lay more than twenty years in theatre, television and film, a career that had begun in my teenage years, in which I gathered my own experience and learned from great masters.
Having found my footing in Germany, the answers took shape. Today my work rests on three connected pillars: the stage, directing, and training. What I learned as a performer I now pass on to the people who most need presence and a clear voice: academics, researchers and professionals who speak in front of an audience.
