About me

I am a 44-year-old engineer from Bilbao, a Basque speaker and a mother. I am passionate about Euskadi, its people and the values that identify us professionally, personally and, in short, as human beings.

I have 7 years of experience in the field of technology, in ICT and customer service. I have dedicated 12 years to the intense and passionate municipal life as a Councillor of Bilbao City Council, trying to contribute to everything that would improve public services, the quality of life of the people and the competitiveness of the city. I was responsible for health, equality, international relations and the management of European funds.

Later I moved to the Provincial Council of Bizkaia as Director General for Good Governance, Citizen Services and Digital Services

I like challenges, learning new things, meeting different people and working in a team. My musts are my family, my friends, sports and moments alone.

I would focus my mandate on digitalisation, re-industrialisation, competitiveness, reducing administrative burdens for agriculture and fisheries, unity in diversity, promoting minority languages... among others.

Renew Europe Now: priorities and candidates. Interview to Sandro Gozi
