Before devoting myself to writing, or I should say to writing and cinema, which is what I do now, I traveled a long way. I was born in Caracas, Venezuela, on August 28, 1964. Since childhood I leaned towards Sciences, although I liked Humanities so much. I wanted to be an Architect, a position held firmly until a year before entering college. Given the large number of professionals in the area, I decided to switch to a budding career, which promised to become popular: Computer Engineering, at University Simon Bolivar. After graduation in 1987, I decided to pursue a Masters in Computer Science, while teaching at the University. While I obtained the title of Magister, I did pre-doctoral studies, but at that point I decided it was time to apply my knowledge. As I mentioned before, I always had a latent inclination for Humanities, which led me, once I was professionally established, to explore that world. So, I decided to write my first novel, which became Fatal DNA. I must confess that when I started writing, I did it more with a view of intellectual self-pleasing than thinking to make the outcome public. I gave the draft to a reduced group of friends, which received it with great reviews. I thought it was the friendship between us what generated the comments, more than anything. I expanded the radio a little, with similar results. At that point I decided to publish the work. Then I wrote The Brotherhood of the Rabbit and started thinking about another project that filled the only undeveloped area of the things I love: make a movie out of Fatal DNA. I had to study hard to learn the basics, but I’ve always had a knack for absorbing knowledge. Given the complexity of making a film that represented Fatal DNA, I decided to start with a less ambitious project. I wrote a script which would be simple at first, but like anything in life, it grew and I ended up filming a movie in four countries (Venezuela, England, France and Spain).
