My beginnings in my musical artistic career in the group Aroma de Tarapoto, formed in my neighborhood with my childhood friend Richard Ríos, my older brother Rousbel Sueños, Daniel Arriola, Rony Fasanando, Omar Tejada, ‘Ricachin’ de la Cruz and in the direction, one of my teachers that I esteem and respect a lot, Llelbis Melbin Ríos, ex-singer of Sonido 2000. I will always love those beautiful experiences in my adolescence when I was only 14 years old, “he said.
