Copywriter and translator based in Madrid. My dual Spanish and English nationality and passion for travel have inspired me to use my love of languages to bring destinations to life. During my studies, my research focused on travel writing and translating diplomatic documents, letters, and recipes from the early modern period. Now, with a newfound interest in SEO and the role of AI in the creative industries, I enjoy producing vivid, immersive travel content for wider audiences. At the heart of my writing is always a desire to spotlight the lesser-known in life.

Experience

I’ve spent the past 4 years developing my journalistic and creative writing for both online and offline publications. As Deputy Editor and writer at The Indiependent, I’ve edited and published a variety of reviews and opinion pieces, ranging from books to music to the impact of emerging technologies on the publishing industry. Equally as rewarding has been the opportunity to submit my fiction work to magazines such as Nowhere Girl Collective, Spilt Milk, and The Student Film Journal.
