In 2006 she was awarded the Latin Grammy Award as Art Director, an award for which she was also nominated in 2014 and 2015. She has also worked in the licensing field for both local and international brands.
For more than 10 years she has been a teacher in the subject of Typography at the University of Buenos Aires and has published two typographic families based on her lettering work: Lady René and Lady Dodó, together with the Sudtipos foundry.
