about

Daniela’s current main focus is audio engineering. She currently works as an assistant engineer at Abbey Road Studios. She’s worked with artists such as Dua Lipa, James Blake, Sam Smith, Lewis Capaldi, Ezra Collective, and Jacob Collier. And also has had the chance to work with composers such as Jonny Greenwood, Hania Rani, Alexandre Desplat, Michael Giacchino, and Jeff Russo.

In 2015, Daniela completed a BA in Classical Piano Performance under the guidance of Sergei Sichkov (PhD, Tchaikovsky Conservatory) at the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogotá, Colombia. That same year, she participated in the VIth International Piano Festival "Oscar Buenaventura" in the Tolima Conservatory, Colombia, and the Vth International Chamber Music Festival in the Teatro El Lago, Chile. 

Daniela joined the minimalist group Ensamble Als Eco and performed music by Philip Glass, Terry Riley, Simeon Ten Holt, and Antoine Beuger.

In 2017, she moved to London and developed a keen interest in sonic art practices from her studies at SAE Institute. From her 2019 research, she created a 3D site-specific sound installation titled Mismatched Milieux, showcased at St. Ethelburga's Centre for Peace and Reconciliation in London, and was awarded First Class.

Daniela has collaborated with visual artists exploring sound and music composition as a complement to visual media. Her work has been shown in SGR Galería (2017) and Espacio Odeon (2018) in Colombia, and Sharjah Art Foundation (2018 and 2019) in the United Arab Emirates. The shortfilm By The River by Colombian director Sofía Camargo, which Daniela mixed, was enlisted for the FICCI International Film Festival Official Selection (Colombia, 2020), Latino Media Fest, Official Jury Award (the USA, 2020), Fusion Film Festival (the U.S.A, 2020), First Run Film Festival (the U.S.A, 2020), Little Wing Festival (the UK, 2020), Amarcort Film Festival (Italy, 2020), and now is part of Criterion Collection.
