[1] Born and raised in León, she started playing basketball with school club Dominicos, and later in nearby Casa Galicia Baloncesto.

[2] After one season at Amanecer Alcorcón, she signed for Dorna Godella / Costa Naranja, where she won FIBA European Champions Cup 1993.

[3] She made her debut with Spain women's national basketball team at the age of 19.

As one of the most promising young players of her time, she was offered the chance to join the Caja Toledo - BEX Banco Exterior project in 1988, with other young Spanish prospects in order to prepare for the 1992 Summer Olympics, but she refused for personal reasons.

She was later called up for the Olympic squad due to Yolanda Moliné's injury, but head coach Chema Buceta didn't give her the chance to play because of her denial to join the team in 1988.
