She emigrated to Belgium to study vocal jazz, from there she has dedicated herself to discovering the sounds of folklore, jazz and world music. She has participated in various projects and groups since 2001 sharing with great musicians with whom she has grown during the 21 years she has been abroad.

In 2015 she started a new project with the Congolese Master guitarist Dizzy Mandjeku and the master composer and base player Leonardo Gómez Jattin.
