Born in Madrid in 1995, she entered the Reina Sofia School of Music at a very early age. After completing her studies in Madrid, she won a scholarship to study abroad, at the Humboldt Wardwell Stipendium, and moved to Berlin to study with the prestigious soloist Tabea Zimmermann at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler and at the Kronberg Academy with Nobuko Imai.
