Predoctoral researcher in the field of the SENSING IBERIANSCAPES project (CIDEXG/2022/55) 'Revealing Iron Age sites and landscapes in the Iberian Peninsula' (Spain), focused on remote sensing technologies in archaeology.

I hold a degree in History (1999) and earned my PhD with European mention in Archaeology (2013) from the Universitat de València. My doctoral thesis focused on the traditions of Mediterranean shipbuilding from the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century AD. My passion for nautical archaeology and underwater techniques led me to train at the Centre d'Arqueologia Subaquàtica de Catalunya, with which I maintain a close collaborative relationship, participating as a researcher in several projects. Additionally, I have undertaken numerous predoctoral and postdoctoral research stays at the Département des Recherches Archéologiques Subaquatiques et Sous-Marines (Drassm).

Between 2006 and 2019, I undertook excavation campaigns and research on the Roman wreck of Bou Ferrer (La Vila Joiosa, Alacant) as part of several contracts with the Direcció General de Patrimoni Cultural de la GVA. From 2013 to 2017, I served as a research associate at the Centre Camille Jullian, located at the Maison méditerranéenne des sciences de l'homme in Aix-en-Provence, CNRS. During this period, I continued my investigation into maritime cultural transfers by examining boat and ship construction, conducting in situ studies of various naval architectures.

Since 2019, I have served as a research associate at the Institute of Nautical Archaeology at Texas A&M University, receiving annual grants from the institution to pursue my research on the naval architecture of the wreck of El Sec (Mallorca) from 2020 to the present. Additionally, since that time, I have been conducting a study of the naval architecture of the Greek wreck of Mazotos (Cyprus).

In terms of teaching, I have been involved in several courses focused on underwater archaeological heritage, specifically covering ancient Mediterranean naval architecture in the official master's program at the University of Cadiz since 2016. Notably, I served as a visiting lecturer for a semester at Philipps-Universität Marburg in Germany, followed by another four-month externship there in 2018. Currently, I am employed as a researcher at UV, working on the Mazarrón 2 project, which involves the extraction of the Phoenician wreck. This project has both management and research objectives, aiming to recover the wreck from an unstable environment while enhancing our understanding of a shipbuilding tradition that originated in the Levant and continued along the Mediterranean coast of the Iberian Peninsula.
