Her acting in this role received excellent reviews, which led to her role as protagonist in "La Viuda de la Mafía", another soap opera which aired in 2006 in RCN Channel (another Colombian Channel). Between 2007 and 2010 she worked in different TV series such as Mujeres Asesinas, Sin Retorno, Tiempo Final and Karabudjan. The latter was a 6-hour miniseries for Antena 3 in Spain.

In 2010, she traveled to Los Angeles to co-star in the film The Chosen One along with comedian Rob Schneider (who also wrote and directed the movie). Her successful career led her to work in Federal [pt], a Brazilian action film with Michael Madsen, Saluda al diablo de mi parte along with Edgar Ramírez, and most recently: El paseo, a family road trip comedy shot in the Colombian countryside.[2]
