Fluent in Spanish, English, Portuguese, Catalan and French, she has built a broad intercultural understanding through an international professional journey that led her to live in four countries and work closely with communities from diverse cultural backgrounds. This experience provided her with a versatile professional profile spanning administration, client support, communication and operations.

At FTHub, as Learning and Finance Director, Sonia plays a central role in ensuring the organisation’s administrative, financial and operational coherence.

Sonia’s contribution is crucial to the operational robustness necessary for the development and implementation of large-scale training programmes, international capacity-building actions and multi-partner research initiatives. Through her leadership, she ensures that FTHub can grow sustainably, respond to the administrative demands of high-level international projects, and provide a reliable organisational structure that supports trainers, researchers and partner institutions.
