In 2005, she was separated from the Argentine national field hockey team by the coach Gabriel Minadeo, after she said that "many of the players have a place on the team just because of their surname". She came back to the team in 2010 under Carlos Retegui coaching but was forced to leave the team due knee injuries. She also played for Club Ciudad de Buenos Aires and HC Rotterdam in the Netherlands. References. "Portions based on a translation from Spanish Wikipedia"
