In 1938, Sampaguita Pictures spotted the child and cast her in a tear-jerker movie titled Inang Mahal ("Dear Mother"). Her second movie for Sampaguita was Ang Magsasampaguita (The Sampaguita Vendor).

She joined in a war film with Carmen Rosales titled Guerilyera and typecasted in numerous musical films paired by some of Sampaguita's finest actors. Her last movie with Sampaguita was Isang Halik Mo Pancho. She made Maria Went to Town under Deegar Cinema Inc.
