She took up the sport at age four. (becasvamos.es, 25 Feb 2020)

She was inspired watching films starring Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. "I did a lot of sports. My parents did not like martial arts, they thought it was too violent. In the end it was my grandfather who made the decision to sign me up. He said, 'Don't be boring, let the girl do whatever she wants'. And at age four I was enrolled in taekwondo."

To compete at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (becasvamos.es, 25 Feb 2020)

Securing a quota spot for the 2020 Olympic Games at the 2021 European Olympic Qualification Tournament in Sofia, Bulgaria. "An amazing feeling, the best that has ever happened to me." (elconfidencial.com, 19 May 2021)

Philosophy:

"For me it is not a sacrifice. I do it because I enjoy it. I stand out for my ability to work. I really like training, that's my greatest talent. I'll do whatever it takes every day to be able to come to train." (elconfidencial.com, 19 May 2021)

STUDIES
She hopes to study biology at university after the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. "My parents always told me that to continue doing taekwondo I had to combine it with my studies and the truth is that I am having no problems doing that. The two can be perfectly combined. The time you would be on the couch watching TV, you study instead. As long as you organise yourself well, there is time for everything." (elconfidencial.com, 19 May 2021)
