5	Pinochet was born prematurely, and as such, his voice did not change until well into his adult life. As a result, many of his roles are child characters. He started in 1998 in Chile usually voicing children for commercials, but later he started to work on films and series (most of them dubbed in Chile) as well local productions, also working on Mexico between 2011 and 2012. In 2015 he sufered a late grownth and [[InopportuneVoiceCracking he changed his distintive childish voice]], but he still keeps some of it and is active until today.
