In 2022, She rose to prominence by refereeing in the final between Venezuela and France for the Maurice Revello, formerly Toulon, tournament. In that game, she displayed an abysmal showing, giving a total of 10 yellow cards to the Venezuelan team (including 2 to the coaching staff) while giving none to the French team. This was among numerous other incorrect calls for offsides and fouls that favored the French team. This is why many refer to this game as one of the greatest robberies of all time in a Final. The game went on to have disastrous consequences for female refereeing as a lot of people lost faith in female referees to handle intese games where players are heated.
