Originally from the Tepito neighborhood in Mexico City, in the film Canoa, the actor played the role of Miguel Flores Cruz and was part of several films including "Las razones del corazón", "El carnaval de Sodoma", "La virgen de la lujuria", "Azul Celeste", among others. He said that "Canoa" was one of the strongest films in which he participated alongside actors he considered idols. He was part of the film "Chin Chin el Teporocho", based on the book by Armando Ramírez, and in which he connected with his origins in the "Barrio bravo" of Tepito. During an interview with the YouTube channel La Tranza de Tepito in 2015, the actor assured that he has sometimes left the area, but that he usually returns to it because he feels it is part of him and of his formation as an individual.
