Greta Fernández (Barcelona, 1995) speaks passionately about her job. And when she does, she smiles with that special grimace that characterizes her, narrowing her eyes.

“You go through many phases. You decide that you go for it all, then you doubt, then you get tired. You have to convince yourself that you are good although not many things come out. It is a work of ego constant. “It sounds complicated to deal with one at that level.” But I get along fine, huh? I am lucky to have my father and friends who always tell me to be calm. I have patience and I have never suffered it. When I was little yes, a ‘no’ is always hard …, but now I relativize much more “.
