She graduated in Physics of the Earth and the Cosmos in 1997 from the University of Barcelona.

She started her career around the age of 21, joining SAM, the first Spanish company dedicated to meteorological information, right after her physics studies. Her television debut came on September 15, 1997, on Vía Digital's Teletiempo space, and she later appeared on Canal Satélite Digital's Canal Meteo. Standing at 5'11" (180 cm) with black hair, she has been active in the industry since 1997, amassing 29 years of experience.
Her career in meteorology progressed through several key roles. After a stint at El 33, she joined the TV3 meteorology team, where from April 23, 2004, to June 27, 2008, she was a meteorologist for the morning program Els matins.
