She achieved the norms for this by winning the Central American U20 championship for girls in 2006, in the Open of the 45th Capablanca Memorial in June 2010 in Havana with over-fulfillment (at the same time an IM norm and an over-fulfillment for this), at the Cuban women's championship in January 2011 as well as in the Open of the 46th Capablanca Memorial in May 2011.
