She has been nominated for coveted awards in Argentina’s flourishing film industry, including a 2016 Best New Actress nomination for the Argentine Academy of Cinematography Arts and Sciences Award. The following year, she won the Martín Fierro Award for Best Actress in a Miniseries. This was for her role in The Rich Do Not Ask for Permission, a telenovela that aired on Channel 13 from January to December 2016.
