  About America  


I was born in Venezuela in February 1977, daughter of Joan and Piedad. I only lived there for two and a half years. On the way to Europe, where my parents came from, we visited most of South America. Unfortunately, I can't remember anything from that trip, although my mother often tells me stories about it.

I spent my childhood in different places of Catalonia, where my mother was working as a pediatrician. I lived in Sant Carles de la Rapita, Reus, Tordera and Olesa de Montserrat. However, I spent my teenage years in Reus, a town I have very good memories of and where my mother and best friends live.



In 1995 I went to study Economics in Barcelona and I moved there. Once I finished my first undergraduate degree in 1999, I started to travel and since then I have been living and working first between Barcelona and New York, then between Barcelona and Washington, and now between Barcelona and Pittsburgh.

Living between two continents provides me with a perspective that I could hardly obtain being in a single place.
