She was the sister of the painter Enric Monserdá i Vidal (1850-1926), and her daughter was married to the modernist architect, Josep Puig i Cadafalch. She wrote in Spanish through 1875, and from then on, in Catalan. She was a regular participant in the Floral Games, where she was awarded prizes in 1878, 1882 and 1891. In 1909, she was the first woman to chair a poetry contest. A journalist as well, she wrote for the periodical, La Renaixença, and the magazine, Feminal.
