Born and educated in Barcelona, Spain, my professional voyage took me from England to the US, France, and Germany, and provided me with extensive knowledge of each language and culture I came in touch with. During this 12+ year-long life abroad, I honed the skills necessary to become an excellent games localization/QA specialist, project manager as well as consultant.

With over 10 years on my shoulders in the game localization industry, I have been employed in-house by big bosses in this field such as Blizzard Entertainment (France), Square Enix (London) and Nintendo of Europe (Germany).

Additionally, I had the opportunity to act as in-house Localization and QA Manager for Dragon Nest Europe (www.dragonnest.eu) leading Korean, English, German, French, and Spanish Localization and Testing teams.

I am currently a freelance localization specialist and a part-time university instructor with a Video Games degree. At the same time, I also provide assistance to game companies looking for globalization/internationalization.

Life is just a game, enjoy!
