Born in London, in the heart of a Latin American family of artists, Tobías's curiosity to build and play with space developed through lego blocks. Soon after he discovered that his same passion for shaping space and time could be achieved through music.

​

In Yucatan, Mexico he began his formal studies in piano with profesor Alberto Alvarez and soon after with Arturo Gastelum in the state of Morelia. A few years later, upon his return to Merida, he studied with renown professor Marielí Sosa.

He studied at the Conservatorio de las Rosas (Conservatory) in Morelia, Michoacán, where apart from studying piano and percussion, he also became member of the profesional children's choir Coro de Niños Cantores de Morelia. Years later he joined the composition seminar of the Escuela Superior de Artes de Yucatán (School of Arts) under the teachings of Javier Álvarez and Erik Baqueiro.

In 2017 his piece disosiación-és was selected as part of the call for scores Caja de Viento by accordionist Eva Zöllner, in the context of the dual year between Germany & Mexico. That same year, his piece Danzas de los Abuelos was premiered in Amsterdam, as part of the Gleenvinck fortepiano festival by fortepianist Megumi Tanno. In 2018 he was selected as grant holder for PECDA, a state program to incentive the creative and artistic formation. 

He currently lives in Mexico City where he studies music composition with Leonardo Coral and Gabriela Ortiz at the Faculty of Music of the National Autonomous University of Mexico.
