Upon returning to Argentina in 1996, he found himself discontented and decided to travel to Europe to play rugby. He was forced to leave when his plans there went awry and on return flight, stopped over in Toronto, Canada. Curious, Gabriel decided to stay a while and it is here he rediscovered his lost childhood love... Music and the Arts.

In 1997 he played for Balmy Beach Rugby Club in Toronto, helping them win the Senior Men’s Ontario Provincial Championship.

Upon becoming a landed immigrant in 1999, Gabriel finally decided to pool his interests in film and music and dove into the Canadian film industry. He soon worked as a camera assistant alongside top Canadian and International cinematographers.

Forever restless, Gabriel began directing his ideas onto film and video, working them into experimental short films and music videos, each inspired by the music and the creative thoughts in his head. After establishing himself as a focus puller, his urge to express his ideas remained constant. He decided to move into post-production to learn the technical post-production side of filmmaking and became a compositor, working on a TV show as a Digital FX Artist.

As a director, Gabriel visually captures a melancholic as well as furious side of life. He’s constantly learning and experimenting with new and established media forms. From Film, DV, HD to compositing and animating still images.

In February 2006, his first short film "Scream", won Best Experimental Short Film at The New York Minute Film Festival. Among others Celebrity judges were Joel Schumacher, Eric Watson and Rosario Dawson.
