Comedian, humorist, TV host, master of ceremonies and host of galas and events are just some of his many roles in entertainment, where he’s widely considered the best impressionist in Spain. He works in radio, TV, live events, dubbing and film, and is currently starring in the musical Golfus de Roma, which premiered in Mérida in summer 2021.
