Welcome to my site.
My name is Laura Martínez and I write about all things tech: software, innovation, gadgets, how-tos, gaming.
ABOUT ME
I am a Bilingual Technical Writer.
I graduated in Journalism from the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain).
I live in Germany, where I work for a Munich-based tech startup.
I have been living and working abroad for the last 8 years.
In 2019, one of my articles made it to the front page of Business Insider USA.
It all started back in 2010, when I visited the NASA Space Station in Madrid.
I was studying journalism at the time, and I became highly interested in the technology field. Ever since, I have been collaborating with leading online science and tech media such as Xataka, Business Insider, Muy Interesante and Europa Press.
In 2020, I was one of the ten journalists awarded with a Jounalism Research Grant issued by the Berlin Senate Chancellery for Higher Education and Research, in order to cover the Berlin Science Week 2020.
