About the author

I'm a Spanish photojournalist based in Mexico City. Before moving here in 2007 I worked in Venezuela for six years with Reuters, EFE, EPA and various newspapers.

Currently I'm freelancing and producing audio slideshows. I've found that audio-slide shows are a nice way to present my photo stories, so on my website you'll find a virtual audio-photo tour of Mexico as well as stories that range from the victims of street violence in Caracas to Spanish art and cuisine.
