Her passion for animals led her to study veterinary medicine at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in León, her hometown. There were always cows, pigs, chickens, and other animals at home, which sparked her interest in animal nutrition and production subjects from her university studies.

After graduating in 1999, she completed an internship in a small animal clinic and then undertook demanding fieldwork on farms in eastern León. Shortly after, she worked as an official veterinarian during a holiday period and, almost immediately, was awarded a grant from the Economic Development Agency of Castile and León to join a research project at Dibaq, where she has worked since 2001.

He started on the group's pig farms and integrated pig operations, then moved to rabbit farming as a sales technician, and later joined Dibaq's pet food sales team, where he worked in sales for about five years. After that, he moved to the product department, where he trained in dog and cat nutrition and began developing formulas that were much simpler than the complex ones used today.
