Born in León, Cuesta devoted his early years to tennis, learning from figures such as Nick Bollettieri, Guillermo Vilas, Pete Sampras, and Jim Courier. At a very young age, an injury marred his tennis career, but he kept training with Bollettieri until he asked Cuesta to move to Thailand to open an academy. Once in Bangkok, Cuesta became growingly interested in wildlife.
His interest in animals brought him to fame with the TV show Frank de la Jungla (es), for which he won a Premio Ondas in 2011 for the category of Innovation or Television Quality (es). The show spawned two spin-offs: La Selva en Casa (es) and Natural Frank (es). All three shows were broadcast by Cuatro. A fourth show, Wild Frank (es), was broadcast by Discovery International.
