FUN FACTS:

From Madrid, Spain and Bolivian for my mother.
Mother of two children with Basque names, a frustrated professional swimmer, an admirer of the Senda Verde project in Yungas and in another life would like to be a professional animal activist.
In my work as an actress I play a character that has a youtube channel and is called Patman. And yes, I talk and I'm dressed like the real batman.
Ceramist, singer, model and flamenco dancer.
I Love teaching drama. I love what only drama can do, to understand perfectly who one is and to put oneself in the other's place.
