Ana Laura Viñuela was born in California to an Argentine diplomat, thus naturally possessing both nationalities.

With a degree in Interior Design, and as a Professional Sworn Translator, she has worked in several interdisciplinary projects with varied subject matter, ranging from literary and legal, to business and academic topics, among others.
Ana Laura’s native grasp on both Spanish and English is a product of experimenting and living among contrasting cultures, allowing her an understanding of the differences in idiosyncrasy between Anglo and Latin American nationals.
