Lewin began her career in 1996, right after graduating from the theater program at the Pontifical Catholic University. At that time, she was a promising yet unknown actress when a casting director from a modeling agency offered her an audition at the cable music channel, Vía X. Impressed by her talent, she was immediately recruited as a VJ. Simultaneously, she received an offer from TVN to act in the TV series Tic Tac, and from that moment on, her career took off like a whirlwind. She went on to participate in successful and memorable soap operas such as Iorana, La fiera, Romané, Pampa ilusión, Puertas adentro, Los Pincheira, and Cómplices, among others. Lewin made her debut in the film industry as a lead actress in the horror movies Ángel negro (2000) and Sangre Eterna (2002), both directed by Chilean filmmaker Jorge Olguín. Her exceptional performance in the movie Sábado by Matías Bize earned her the Best Actress award at the Mannheim-Heidelberg International Film Festival in Germany. She further showcased her acting prowess in the film En la cama, where she played the leading role alongside Gonzalo Valenzuela. Additionally, she co-hosted the program La liga, which was broadcast on Mega. In 2007, Lewin achieved significant success in her career with the TV series Lola on Canal 13, where she obtained her first leading role. This role established her as one of the prominent female faces in the drama department of the channel and solidified her position as one of the most important actresses in Chile. She also ventured into the English-language film industry, traveling to New York to shoot her first English-language film, New Brooklyn, directed by Christopher Cannucciari, alongside actor Pablo Cerda. In 2008, she portrayed Clara in Rubén Alonso's debut film Extrañamente íntimos, filmed in Valladolid, Spain, marking her entry into the Spanish film industry. Since 2003, Lewin has also been a columnist for the magazine El Periodista, where she shares her insights on national and international events every two weeks. In 2010, she co-starred in the soap opera Feroz, playing the role of Ángela Carrera. This was followed by her appearances in nighttime soap operas Peleles (2011) and Secretos en el jardín (2014) on Canal 13. She also played Ana, the art teacher, in the successful TVN series El reemplazante for two seasons. In 2015, she returned to TVN and secured one of the leading roles in Matriarcas, portraying Chantal Chávez, the main antagonist. Finally, in 2018, she made another return to Canal 13 to participate in the highly successful soap opera Pacto de sangre.
