Font was born 6 September 1985 in El Vendrell, Tarragona. She is blind.[1] She found a job with assistance from the Employment HPOD PROAD Program, which is supported by ONCE.[2] In December 2013, she attended an event marking Spanish insurance company Santa Lucía Seguros becoming a sponsor of the Spanish Paralympic Committee, and consequently Plan ADOP which funds high performance Spanish disability sport competitors. She chose to attend the event because she wanted to show support for this type of sponsorship.[3]
Swimmingedit
Font is an B2/S12 classification swimmer.[1] When swimming, she has a "tapper" who taps her so she knows when she has to initiate a turn in the water.[4]

In 2011, Font trained with Carla Casals.[6] She competed at the 2011 IPC European Swimming Championships in Berlin, Germany where she won a bronze medal in the 100 meter breaststroke.[6][7][8] In 2012, she competed at the Paralympic Swimming Championship of Spain by Autonomous Communities.[9] She raced at the 2012 Summer Paralympics. She was the number three swimmer in the 400 meter freestyle race.[1] She finished sixth in the 200 meter individual medley.[10] She competed at the 2013 IPC Swimming World Championships.[11][12] From the Catalan region of Spain, she was a recipient of a 2012 Plan ADO scholarship.[13] In November 2013, she competed at the Spanish Age Swimming Championships for blind and visually impaired.[14]
