Granted a scholarship from Fundación "la Caixa" in 2007, she entered the Film Directing Programme at CalArts, the California Institute of the Arts, where she was able to tap into fiction film. In 2010, she got a grant from Navarra's Government to complete here graduate studies in Los Angeles, under the tutorship of Monte Hellman.

At this moment she makes publicity to Latin market at the United States and her first full-length documentary, Next, is in post-production.
