He studied Philosophy and Theology at the Pontificio Seminario Conciliar de Durango and continued Theology at the Seminary of Monterrey, and took a licentiate in Philosophy at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. He was ordained a deacon on 12 January 1997 and a priest on 15 August 1997; the place of his priestly ordination and the ordaining bishop are not established in the opened sources.

As a priest of Monterrey he served as parochial vicar of San Isidro Labrador, of San Antonio de Padua, and of La Natividad del Señor; as Spiritual Director of the Institute of Philosophy of the Seminary of Monterrey; as Secretary General and Professor of Latin and Greek of the Seminary of Monterrey; as General Coordinator, then Coordinator of Studies, of the Institute of Philosophy; as parish priest of La Sagrada Familia in Apodaca; and as parish priest of San Francisco de Asís in Apodaca and Episcopal Vicar of Zone X.

Pope Francis appointed him Titular Bishop of Auzegera and Auxiliary Bishop of Monterrey on 22 March 2014, and he was consecrated bishop on 13 June 2014 in the Auditorio Banamex, where Archbishop Rogelio Cabrera López named him Vicar General the same day. He remains listed as Auxiliary Bishop and Vicar General on the archdiocesan page. No motto is found for him in the opened sources, and no consecrator is stated in the archdiocesan biography.
