Born in Santiago, Chile, she began her musical training as a pianist at an early age. She studied piano at the Experimental Artistic Lyceum and the Modern School of Music, where she received a broad musical education and participated in numerous concerts as a “young student”. In 1994, she received the Elena Weiss Award for Piano Performance.

Her musical training led her to Sound Engineering at the Technological University of Chile (VIPRO), where she graduated in Sound Engineering. She continued her studies in Italy, obtaining a Master’s degree in Sound Engineering from the University of Rome II, with a thesis supervised by Giovanni Brambilla at the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) in Rome. During this period, she also studied composition and electronic music at the Saint Louis College of Music and the Santa Cecilia Conservatory in Rome.

Her academic and artistic training later expanded into sound art and digital media. She obtained a Master’s degree in Sound Art from the University of Barcelona, with additional postgraduate studies in Sound Design and Sonic Creation at the same institution and in Video Design in Berlin.

Since 2014, she has worked across film, television, theatre and dance as a composer and sound designer.

Her sound design work includes productions for ARD, ZDF, SWR, HR and Sky, ranging from well-established German television series to TV films, documentaries and feature films. Among these are Tatort – Murot und der Elefant im Raum, Das Märchen vom Schwanensee, Jenseits der Spree, Erzgebirgskrimi, Ein Fall für zwei, Das Haus am Gletscher, Fang mich doch! and the documentary Elon Musk Uncovered – Das Tesla-Experiment.

Her work in film also includes The Second Attack, directed by Mala Reinhardt, Una Primavera, directed by Valentina Primavera, and Datsche, directed by Lara Hewitt. These films have been presented at international film festivals including DOK Leipzig, Berlinale, Rotterdam International Film Festival and Hot Docs, and have received several awards, including a Grimme Prize.

Alongside her work in film and television, she works in composition, electroacoustic music, sound art, theatre, dance and sound installations. Her practice combines acoustic instruments, electronic and synthesized sounds, as well as concrete and found sounds.

Her artistic work includes electroacoustic compositions such as Yo, Caballo and Galatea: In the Mind of the Machine and in the Heart of Noise. Yo, Caballo was selected for the MUSLAB International Electroacoustic Music Festival 2023 in Guayaquil, Ecuador, and was included in MUSLAB – Planeta Complejo, released by Cero Records.
