Tell us about yourself

My background combines law and economics. I hold a Law degree from the University of Barcelona, an Official Master’s Degree in Economic Management from Abat Oliba CEU University, and a CECRI Postgraduate Degree in Restructuring and Insolvency from Pompeu Fabra University (iDec).

I have always practiced as a lawyer specializing in restructuring and insolvency matters throughout Spain, working on both domestic and cross-border projects. I also serve as an Insolvency Administrator and Mediator in civil, commercial, and insolvency matters, accredited by the AEADE and the CGE.

For several years, I was an Associate Professor of Private International Law at the University of Barcelona and a Member of the Insolvency Law Section of the Barcelona Bar Association. At the firm, I hold the position of Managing Partner for Restructuring & Insolvency. In addition, I coordinate the Legal department of the Madrid office.

How do you think these last few years have influenced the way we work?

I believe it is essential to take advantage of change and focus on what adds value. Digitalization and AI have enabled — and will continue to enable — greater efficiency, better time management, and increased competitiveness.

What do you value most in your day-to-day life and being part of Baker Tilly?

What I value most is working with teams to build tailored solutions for business crises. Doing so at Baker Tilly is highly rewarding: a young firm with diverse, highly professional profiles.

"My advice, or rather advice for someone who is just starting out in their career, is the same advice I was given when I started out: attitude, proactivity, honesty, humility, training and rigour. With this you can get anywhere"
