Carmen began her singing lessons with the soprano, María Coronado Herrera, in her home city of Badajoz, Spain.
She won numerous awards in competitions such as Operalia, Franciso Viñas, Manuel Ausensi or Grand Voices of Seville.

Her principal roles on stage, always as the lead, began in 2009 with Un Ballo in Maschera in the opera of Oviedo, where in later seasons she performed Madama Butterfly and Leonora (Il Trovatore) and this later opera in the National Opera of Croacia as well. Also, Tosca in Bilbao, Pamplona, Sabadell (and on tour with Opera de Catalunya Foundation) as well as in the Giglio Theater in Lucca, Italy and in the Éfeso Theater in Izmir, Turkey; Contessa (Le Nozze di Figaro) in ABAO Bilbao; Fidelia (Edgar) and Anna (Le Villi) in the Teatro Monumental in Madrid.
Among her recent performances, most notably is her debut as Rosario in the opera Goyescas during the season in Oviedo, Manon Lescaut and Puccini’s Tosca in the Catalunya Opera and the role of Salud in Falla’s La Vida Breve with the OSRTVE.
