Additional information
LOW PROFILE
Despite having won gold medals at the world championships and the European Games in recent years, she does not like to talk about her titles and prefers not being recognised by the public. "Some people are involved in sport for the results but I am more interested in emotions. Nobody knows me. In my city of Moncada [in Spain] I am maybe a little bit more recognised but I do not want to be the centre of attention. I would rather prefer to be unnoticed. I would like people to know more about aerobic gymnastics and not about me." (lasprovincias.es, 28 Nov 2016)
