Career

Born in Cabudare, [1] Castillo started working as manager at several local sides in Lara state. [2] He led Fundación Lara Deportiva to a first-ever promotion to the Segunda División in 2019, after winning the Tercera División promotion play-offs. After being in charge of the side during the 2020 and 2021 seasons (as the club was named Academia Rey), the side confirmed his departure on 24 March 2022. [3]

Castillo was an assistant of Jorge Durán at Deportivo Lara, before taking over Angostura in the second division on 2 June 2022. [4] At the end of the season, he led the team to a first-ever promotion to the Primera División as champions. [5]

Castillo led Angostura to a mid-table finish in the 2023 season, and also qualified the club to the final rounds of the 2024 Apertura tournament. On 6 September 2024, however, he left the club by mutual consent after a poor performance in the Clausura tournament, [6] but returned to the club the following 12 January, now back in the second division.
