From a very young age, he started training and working as a draftsman. In 1978 he started to make contact with the world of glass and its different applications in the artistic field. He started his first business, a workshop dedicated to artistic stained glass… windows, in Castelar (Santander). There he started manufacturing stained glass, mainly destined to the decorative and hospitality industry. 

In 1981, he created a multidisciplinary work group with the Stained Glass Masters of the Basque-French School Echevarría and Andrade, and with the Stained Glass Masters of the School of León. 

In 1982-83 he attended his first training courses regarding the conservation, restoration and consolidation of historic and medieval stained glass windows in the International Stained Glass Centre. This enabled him to take the chance to learn in the Chartres Cathedral (France) and the Bourges Cathedral (France). From 1984 to 1989 he attended many fairs, seminars and conferences – both national and international ones. 

Between 1990 and 2003 he collaborated with different institutions: International Stained Glass Centre (Chartres, France); International Stained Glass Centre (Bourges, France); Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas del Vidrio Profesor Hareas Navarro (Madrid, Spain); Instituto de Conservación y Restauración de Bienes Culturales, Dirección General de Bellas Artes y Archivos of the University Menéndez Pelayo; the Pol Lleti Foundation.

He also discovered and retrieved transcriptions of Medieval Codices regarding the manufacture and pigmentation of flat glass for the Archive of the Library of the Corning Museum (New York, United States). 

In 1996, in collaboration with the Ministry of Industry, he created and led the society named Sociedad Maestros Vidrieros Montañeses in the municipality of Pámanes (Cantabria). From there, he organized and led conferences and exhibitions with different themes relating to Artistic Stained Glass Windows and the policies which regulate the different methods of intervention in the processes of giving a solution to the historic stained glass windows in both Cantabria and France. He also carried out scientific researches and studies regarding the performance of the vitreous mass and the alterations produced by environmental phenomena. And, moreover, he carried out research and iconographic representation studies, reports and inventory memoirs, as well as, dating and cataloguing of historic stained glass.
