She discovered her love for letters in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2012, where she studied with renowned artists such as Silvia Cordero Vega and Marina Soria, in addition to Jaime de Albarracín and Claude Dietrich in Lima, Peru. She also honed her skills by participating in workshops with Ale Paul, Yani and Guille, Martina Flor, and Gemma O'Brien.
