Sandra was born in Barcelona to a Catalan mother and an Indian father.
At 18, she went to Germany and came back in love with the language and the people. She studied German philology at the University of Barcelona combining this with long stays in Germany working as an au pair in Hamburg, and later as a Spanish teacher in the city of Halle/Saale.
When she finished her degree, she worked as a technical and film translator but soon after, in February 2000 and while she was working on her doctorate, fate took her to the agency and to the discovery of a passion to get involved in the publication of works from different countries and cultures.
In 2003, she took a post-graduate diploma in Literary Criticism at the Pompeu Fabra University and in 2006 participated in the Fellowship Programme at the Frankfurt Book Fair.
Sandra is the director of the agency.
