Additional Info: FIREFIGHTER
She has volunteered as a firefighter in Medanos, Argentina. "I'm very stubborn. Sometimes I don't take into account my own limitations, but I would rather be like that instead of doing nothing because I am visually impaired. I said, 'Mum, I would love to help and become a firefighter'. I didn't see my mother's face but I imagined that she didn't like the idea. When she saw that I meant it, she joined as well, and did all the courses next to me." (a24.com, 27 Jun 2023; clarin.com, 26 Jun 2023)
