The

Entrepreneur

During my youth I always felt inspired to create social and human development projects that made use of the power of classical music and creative education as a platform for the growth of new generations. Today, after 11 years of hard artistic work, I can say that thanks to the support of colleagues, families, and friends, many of these projects were carried out in my native country, Venezuela, and around the world, benefiting more than 5,000 children, families and communities. Being the founder and president of a non-profit organization as well as the writer of an important book for violin pedagogy accessible to anyone is a living example of this journey.
