She won the bronze medal at 2008 Summer Olympics in one of the most dramatic matches of whole tournament. She stood against Pak Ok-Song from North Korea. The Korean judoka was active whole match and got a koka in middle of the match for activity. Drama came in last 10 seconds when Pak began a technique but Paula made use of it for her technique, which was a counter to the Korean's move. Problems arose when the jury counted the technique for Pak, perhaps because she began to move first. In the end Pak celebrated the medal and Paula cried but her trainer Carlos Denegri lodged an objection so the jury checked the video. Finally they agreed that it was Pareto who made the technique (Kuchiki-taoshi) and so she took the medal.
