Her passion for acting began at an early age, participating in her parents' puppet theater company in Florence, Italy.

At the age of ten, Paola and her parents moved to Colombia, where she studied theater for three years with Edgardo Román and Paco Barrero.

At that time, when she was seventeen, she secured her first audition for Amor a thousand, a Colombian soap opera that lasted almost two years.

This opened the doors and began working on other television series such as This is the life and stories of men only for women.

She also appeared in commercials for Telecom and Antipiratería, and in short films such as Trip to the Messiah of Felipe Paz.
