Founder

Born on August 31st of 1991 in David, Chiriquí, a west Panamanian province. When I was 5 years old, I moved with my parents to Panama City, Panama. I did College at Interamerican University of Panama where I studied Audiovisual Communications with emphasis on Radio and TV at Interamerican University of Panama and I got a diploma in Banking Journalism from Universidad Católica Santa María la Antigua (USMA).  In 2014 I got my broadcaster license, one year later I began broadcasting my program called “Al Punto”, a radio magazine in Radio Hogar, a local station. Two years later I move the show with a college to Radio Ancón. In 2018 I did my graduate project on the same station; It was about moving the radio frequency to FM because at that time the station was AM in Panama City. On my project, I recommended changing the style on the station as well as looking for a younger audience. Then In 2019, Radio Ancón, finally changed the frequency to 92.1 FM looking for younger audiences as I did recommend. The same year I was hired as a journalist and also worked on some new styles for the station. Later I was promoted as the afternoon news anchor and producer of a program broadcasts on Saturdays. When the pandemic impacted most of my colleges were fired, the reason why I did start in 2020 is the journey for a new news format in Panama through a podcast, the project named NDP (Noticias de Panamá), made up of previous coworkers of Radio Ancón. https://noticiasdepanama.live that is now leading the news in the country through podcasts and growing.
