Born in 1982 in Lekeitio, Bizkaia (Basque Country), he started photographing and developing his own prints in his school's darkroom at age twelve.
In 2011 he attended "Documentary Photography," a course directed by photographer Jesus Mari Arruabarrena for the Basque Summer University (UEU) — the course that shaped how he understands photography and drew him into documentary work. In 2012 he continued with "Documentary Photography: Personal Project," also directed by Arruabarrena for the UEU. Since then he has trained in workshops with Samuel Aranda and Walter Astrada.
His photographs have been published in Positive Magazine (Italy), La Directa (Catalonia) and Zazpika (Basque Country), and exhibited at Les Chemins de la Photographie (Azkaine), GetxoPhoto (Getxo) and the Biennale Internationale d'Arts de Saint Macaire (France).
Alongside several earlier personal works — including a documentary project on a geriatric and mental health centre — he completed Lanbropean (Under the Fog, 2011–2016), a long-term project on the hidden suffering left by the Basque conflict. He is currently working on Jaio, Lea, Hil (Born, Lea, Die), a long-term documentary project following the Lea river through the valley where several generations of his family have lived, as a meditation on time, loss and the slow disappearance of a rural way of life.
