In 1991, he made his acting debut with Televisa’s telenovela Muchachitas, which became a huge hit. His charm led to leading roles in shows like Mágica Juventud (1992), starring Kate del Castillo, and Mi Pequeña Traviesa (1997), alongside Michelle Vieth. In 1999, he joined TV Azteca, starring in telenovelas like Marea Brava and El Amor No Es Como Lo Pintan.
