She trained at the Institute of Culture and the Women's Popular Library and worked as a piano teacher, thanks to her education in musical language. From an early age, she was a member of the Club Aéreo Popular de Barcelona, through which she obtained a grant in 1933. She combined her training in the field of aviation with her musical education and private classes for her students, until she qualified as a pilot in 1934. At the start of the Spanish Civil War she was called up by decree by the head of Naval Aeronautics in Barcelona, to work as an ensign. In this context, she was transferred to the Military Aviators School, where civil pilots were taught, and she met the pioneer aviator Mari Pepa Colomer, with whom she worked until the El Prat aerodrome was bombed in 1938. After the war, the dictatorship took reprisals against her father, a municipal judge, and she assumed responsibility for the subsistence of her family.
