    I have been playing board games all my life, although it has been only recently since I discovered the so called “Modern board games.” In the beginning of 2016, Joaquim Vilalta convinced me to design a board game with him. I was skeptical with the idea, as I didn’t see myself doing so. But his perseverance was worth it. We designed together the board game BIG BANG 13.7, and this made me discover a fascinating new world: the world of board game design. Since then I haven’t stoped constantly designing board game ideas that come up in my mind. And I hope it goes on like this, as I enjoy a lot the design and development phase of a board game.

    I am always attending game festivals that are near Barcelona (Dau-Barcelona or Granoller) but also international events as well (Essen Spiel or Festival des jeux in Cannes). If you ever attend any of them, please don’t hesitate to get in contact with me!
