He has been showcased in “El Teatro de la Nacion,” “Teatro Hidalgo,” and “Teatro Maria Teresa Montoya” in Mexico City.

On a personal level, beginning in 1999 he started studying Buddhist meditation in the Kadampa tradition, which has helped him grow internally and has been the inspiration for many musical tracks such as: Kelsang Gyatso, Compassion, Meditation, Ganden Tap, Bodhisawa, and Las Tres Joyas among others.
Other than studying languages in the Americana Village in El Paso, Texas, he also has had the chance to perform locally which has opened opportunities for him to meet great instrumentalists like Stanley Jordan and Jeff Berlin just to name a few.
