An activist, feminist and a living memory of the local-resident struggle in the city. She played a leading role in eliminating the city's shanty towns and dignifying El Carmel and Can Baró. She dedicated her entire life to demanding basic services and better living conditions for her neighbours. She arrived in Barcelona with her family in 1947. She was the first woman from the El Carmel shanty town to graduate from university, where she studied nursing. In Can Baró, she ran the local resident association for decades. Thanks to her local-resident movement, she achieved basic services for the neighbourhoods, including a sewer system, street lighting and paving, improved public transport communication, as well as facilitating access to a school and a primary care centre. In the 1960s, she promoted sex and contraceptive education among women in El Carmel. In 2009, her struggle was recognised with the Barcelona Medal of Honour, and in 2021 she gave the opening speech at the La Mercè festival.
A neighbourhood and feminist activist, she was the first woman from the Carmel shanty town to earn a university degree. She has spent her life working towards the dignification of the neighbourhood, where she has led the Can Baró Residents’ Association.
