At the end of 2017 she sustained an ankle injury, which meant she was unable to compete at the 2018 Pacific Rim Championships in Medellin, Colombia. She returned to competition in October 2018 at the 2018 World Championships. (gimnasialatina.com, 28 Apr 2018; Fenagichi Facebook page, 12 Oct 2019; eldeportero.cl/, 27 Oct 2018)

She competed at the 2012 Olympic Games in London with chronic pain in her Achilles tendon and an inflamed shoulder muscle. She had also just recovered from a torn abdominal muscle. (intlgymnast.com, 12 Aug 2014)

She took up the sport at age six in Santiago, Chile. (Athlete, 23 Jul 2021; fig-gymnastics.com, 05 Sep 2011)

Her mother did not want her staying home and watching television, so she enrolled her in gymnastics classes. (24horas.cl, 19 May 2016)
