Overview
I have translated other best-selling authors like Ken Follett, Katherine Neville or Frederick Forsyth in collaboration with the Barcelona-based translators' group ANUVELA, where I also coordinate editorial tasks such as translation itself, copyediting and proofreading.
Also, since 2014 I am co-founder and senior production manager of my own editorial agency, devoted to book production in Spanish with project management, developmental editing, copyediting and proofreading services for independent authors as well as for imprints such as Amazon Crossing.
And last but not least, I am also a part-time adjunct professor in English-Spanish Translation in both Graduate and Undergraduate programs at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and BSM - Universitat Pompeu Fabra, two of the most prestigious universities in Spain for Translation programs.
Basically, I am a professional with many years of experience, but also a passionate, literature expert with an obsession for good quality and good stories which can make the magic journey from one culture to another and find there new passionate readers.
