Journalism is not just about putting words together. It’s about witnessing the beauty of a creative reality and encapsulating its charm in the finest wrapping imaginable, bringing accuracy and magic together for the reader´s sake (and my own). My articles aim to dive into those enchanted kingdoms.

Storyteller and accidental coolhunter, my work comes out of the blending of two of my all-time favourite pleasures: creating poetic universes of my own by means of the persuasive and suggestive potential of Word, as well as of diving into others which artistically and aesthetically appeal to me. Just like a creative triangle where rhetoric, fashion and cinema turn and mix. S-p-e-l-l casting, bewitching, discovering, sharing, captivating: that is my mission.

You can get to know me better in this interview I gave to Neo2 magazine when I was picked Contributor of the month.

Narradora de historias y kuljanter accidental, mi trabajo es el resultado de la confluencia entre dos enormes placeres: la creación de universos poéticos propios a través del potencial sugestivo y persuasivo de la palabra y la inmersión en otros ajenos especialmente afines a mi sensibilidad estética. Un triángulo creativo en el que la retórica, el cine y la moda yuxtaponen y alternan sus vértices. Hechizar, embrujar, descubrir, comunicar, seducir: esa es mi misión.
