Life and career Born on 12 April 1980, he had a quiet childhood, even though he was unable to play football from an early age. At the age of 14, he decided to try his hand at handball, a sport in which he quickly excelled, becoming a member of the national youth and junior teams.

It was during this time that he met the actress María Castro, an encounter that would change his life. Thanks to her, he joined a modeling agency, where he discovered and cultivated his passion for show business.

It was around this time that Globomedia contacted him for an audition. After several auditions, he was finally selected to take part in the comedy programme ‘El club del chiste’ on Antena 3, which began recording in 2010. There he also presented a show combining humour and jazz music, thus broadening his artistic versatility.
