Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

Freelancing, by submitting columns to European outlets about what I was learning about Catalan politics during my master’s at UPF.

Why did you become a journalist?

My passion is writing—both creative and journalistic. I pursued a career as a journalist so that I can practice my passion everyday.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

Interviewing exiled Catalan president Carles Puigdemont for Prospect Magazine

What's your favorite drink?

A house vermouth with a slice of orange and an olive in a grungy bar in Barcelona’s gothic quarter.

Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?

My favorite newspaper is The Guardian, I think they provide the most depth even for breaking news. Foreign Policy mag is another favorite.
