Career path
She began her film career with a small role in the movie Taxi, which earned her industry recognition and several awards. From there, she solidified her acting training while continuing to work. She appeared in Balagueró's "Los sin nombre" and P. Llorca's "La espalda de Dios," and with J. Ponce's "15 días contigo," she garnered more awards and a Goya Award nomination. She continued working in films such as "La primera cita" and "Todo salir bien," as well as in episodic roles in television series. To name a few, she appeared in "El comisario," "La pecera de Eva," "La ira," "Un burka por amor," and "El tiempo que te doy." Theater has also been a part of her career, with productions such as "Veneno para ratones," "El tiempo y los Conways," and "Zarabanda." Her most recent film—also award-winning—is J.F.
