I was born on Christmas eve in 1977. Daughter of artists and fortunate enough to grow up in the forest.I was a terrible student, struggling with my subjects every year. I don't remember ever being as bored as back then. Later, I enrolled at the \u201c <\/span>Escola d\u2019Arts Aplicades i Oficis<\/span>\u201d<\/span> in Barcelona eager to release the ideas floating in my mind.<\/span><\/p>

In 1997 I graduated with a degree in graphic design.<\/span>For over 10 years I worked as a graphic designer and creative in advertising. As a side project, driven by my passion for books, I founded a publishing house where I experimented with formats and content. It was pure frenzy\u2014and finally, I was happy. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Today, I dedicate myself completely to creating books. I collaborate with artists I admire and enjoy exploring my own creative limits.

I have published around 30 titles. I am deeply grateful to the publishers that have welcomed me: Penguin Random House (Reservoir Books), Zahor\u00ed Books, Mosquito Books, Litera Libros, Flamboyant, and Editorial Juventud. My books have been translated now into over 10 languages - (including English, Russian, French, Italian, German, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Danish, Slovak, Turkish, and Czech - and I have been recognized with several awards and honors.
