With a graduation in mathematics and more than 20 years of experience as a math teacher, her interests are centered on geometric art, origami and educational applications.
She is the author of books and brochures on origami, lecturer in conferences on theoretical and educational aspects of origami and guest artist.
She has taken part in several art exhibitions including ‘Masters of Origami’ (2005), and ‘Folding Paper: The Infinite Possibilities of Origami’ (2012 16) and ‘Mujeres de Papel’ (2016-17). In 2018 she had an exhibition ‘Papel, Dobragens e … Matemática’ at the University of Lisbon , and in 2019 an exhibition ‘Entre o Papel e a Matemática’ at the University of Aveiro.
Her works were also exhibited at origami conventions in Europe, US and Asia and several times at art exhibitions of Bridges Mathematical Connections in Art, Music and Science including Stockholm (2018) where two works were presented in the nominee gallery.
She gave lectures on theoretical and educational aspects of origami at OSME as well as Didaktik des Papierfaten conferences. In 2014 she participated in the international educational project Visual Math and contributed a chapter to the book Visual Math, Adventures on Paper. Math Based Activities for Experience-Centered Education of Mathematics. The book was printed in English, Hungarian and Serbian.
Her works were placed at the covers of books and journals: Bridges Conference proceedings (2010, 2018); OSME proceedings and abstracts (2010); Revista de Ciência Elementar as well as published in Origami USA calendar and AMS calendar.
Nick Robinson in The Encyclopedia of Origami and Lynn Gamwell in Mathematics and Art: A Cultural History covered her works.
She organized and led for ten years the working group 'Origami and Mathematics' at the Association of Mathematics Teachers in Poland as well as a Polish origami group in Kraków, that run an international origami conference.
