Later, deciding to continue his studies in Buenos Aires, he took lessons with masters such as Gabriel Angio and Natalia Games, Graciela Gonzalez, Sabrina and Ruben Veliz, Mario Morales, among others. In 2013 he participated in the World Tango Championship, where it reaches the semifinals. In 2014, he won the Championship of the milonga ” La Baldosa”, received 5th place in the Metropolitan Championship, in the Adult Tango category, and that same year, the 1st place in the World Tango Championship, in the category “Tango de pista”. From there, he has continued his studies and since 2015 has toured around the world participating in festivals, giving lessons, seminars and performing in shows and exhibitions in Japan, Russia, Italy, Spain, France, and Monaco.
