He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Paris from 1901 and 1905. He lived in Barcelona, where he was a pupil of the architect E. Sagnier, for four years until 1911, when he returned to Ponce (Puerto Rico).

He applied the knowledge he had acquired during his time in Europe to the buildings he constructed in Puerto Rico. Works by this architect include Casa de Eugenio Serrallés and his own home, known as Casa Wiechers-Villaronga (1912; now the Ponce Museum of Architecture and City Life).

He returned to Spain in 1918, but no longer worked as an architect..
