He studied at the National University of San Marcos,[4] and then at the University of Salamanca for a Bachelor of Canon Law.[5] He received the title of Knight of the Order of Calatrava due to his noble lineage.[6] He later served as a magistrate in Lima, later serving in a somewhat similar capacity as an oidor in the Real Audiencia of Chile from 1709 to 1710. He then returned to Lima to perform his old duties, until the King named him interim governor of Chile.
