Life and Experiences

Can you please tell us a little bit about yourself? Some fun facts and anecdotes from your life.

I am a lawyer with more than 29 years of experience. I was born in Madrid, 54 years ago, within an entrepreneurial family. My father run a little hospitality company with 25 employees. I learned most of my leadership knowledges and skills from my father and putting them in practice in the family company. I began to work in the family company when I was 13 and was working there until the year 2000. 

I got married with a wonderful lawyer 26 years ago. We met each other when we were at Law University. We have a girl, who has started to work in New York after studying Business in Lancaster University (UK) and in Northeastern University in Boston, and a boy who is studying Law at the IE University (Madrid-Spain). We are very proud of them.

I am very familiar, hard worker, looking new for new opportunities and searching new business, very proud of my colleagues and my teams, without them it’d be impossible to run develop my ideas and hopes.
