My story
I was born in the enchanted land of the Basque Country, so in a way, I think I was always bound for stories. I was an avid reader growing up, and quite inclined to the performing arts, especially theater and music. However, like most kids, I was encouraged to pursue a college degree that had some use to it. And so, I went into Law School.
After earning a double degree in Law and Criminal Science, I started my career as a defense attorney at one of the biggest law firms in Spain. However, my heart was always somewhere else, and after a few years, I decided to follow my true passion to the entertainment industry – and all the way to LA!
But how does one go from being a character in Suits to... well, writing Suits?
For this makeover, I decided to study a dual master’s in Global Media and Communications from the London School of Economics and the University of Southern California. That's right: the fastest way to LA was to spend a year in London first.
While I was living in London, I worked as a script supervisor in the production of Purple Beatz (premiered at the BFI in 2022). I also taught competitive debate to a wonderful elementary school class in Seoul (remotely, yes). And I wrote the manuscript that went on to become my first published novel, Carlota París.
USC and LA were my formative years, where I learnt everything I know about the business. The main title I held while in LA was Creative Executive, International Programming at Starz - but you can read all about that in the My Work section.
For the unofficial portion of my life, you should know I had a podcast where I interviewed Hollywood writers I admired. That I co-wrote and produced a VR piece with some USC classmates that made it to the frontpage of the LA Times. And that I briefly worked on a Brazilian TV show with Kendrick Lamar!
Since 2025, I'm back living in Madrid, where I work as a TV writer, I scout books for Amazon Prime Video, and I play guitar in a rock band.
