Bio
I was born in Madrid in 1980. My grandfather was a painter, my brother is a writer, so no surprise when I end up doing graphic design and copywriting. Worked in advertising, moved to Oxford for a couple years, came back to Madrid, worked for Impact Hub Madrid from 2013 to 2016, and currently I'm Project Manager at the culture office of Madrid City Council, coordinating gigs such as the Trhee Wise Kings Christmas parade or Veranos de la Villa summer festival. Since 2011 I'm a very happy part of TEDxMadrid organizing team, and in 2017 I became the main organizer and licensee. Since 2015 I've been a Spanish Language Coordinator for the TED Translators program.
