After studying to be a ceramist at the school of Arts et Techniques Céramiques in Paris, she opened her own studio in Madrid in 2020. She uses this space to teach ceramic classes and work on a wide variety of projects, both personal and professional.
Her goal is to create pieces with a modern and minimalist design that brighten up everyday life. Her collections include crockery, decorative pieces, and even fashion jewelry. Her designs can be found in stores across Spain and France, in addition to her own brick-and-mortar and online store.
