MJ "Pepa"
Relocation Strategist
With a calm, structured approach (and a touch of humor), MJ designs step-by-step strategies to help individuals, families, and retirees relocate to Spain.
Independent of Leap Key, MJ practices law and has lived across multiple continents — experiences that now inform her grounded, empathetic approach to client support. As a former Rotary Scholar and World Peace Fellow, she’s passionate about creating meaningful, well-supported transitions.
From high-level planning to connecting clients with vetted legal, housing, and financial professionals, MJ ensures every Leap Key client moves forward with clarity and calm.
Originally from Argentina, Sebastián brings process planning, cross-cultural fluency, and grounded logistics support to every client experience.

Sebastián has lived and worked across Latin America, Australia, and the U.S., giving him firsthand insight into what it takes to move, adapt, and thrive abroad.
Whether coordinating property visits or guiding clients through unfamiliar systems, Sebastián offers clear, steady support that fosters trust and forward momentum throughout each relocation journey.
