By 5 years old, she recognized by logo, all cars that she came across. She was dreaming of driving a Mercedes sedan, angular, solid, with a fuel consumption higher than that of an AMG-made G-Class. Her career started during her first year of being a student at the University of Journalism, in the Sports newsroom of Prima TV. Four years later, she changed channel and position. She became a senior editor in the Sports department of the Antena 1 Television. Following her breakup with television back in 2014, she made a 360-degree turn, from the sports to the car media. Another dream come true, one of revving engines and car sleek lines, so far from the angular sedan that she was dreaming of before 1989.
