Biography

I have a degree in Physical Activity and Sports Sciences from the University of the Basque Country. I studied a master's degree in Sociology, History and Anthropology of Sport at the Paris-Descartes University. In 2017 I finished my doctoral thesis on the hidden curriculum in physical education and grassroots sports.

I have been teaching since 2015 at the Faculty of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences, I am a member of the research group 'Physical Activity, Education and Society' of the University of Valencia and of the 'LGTBIQ+ Research Network, Physical Education and Sport'.

My lines of research are related with physical education and social justice, the situation of LGTBI people in physical activity and sport and the experiences in sport of vulnerable groups (women, people with disabilities, children and adolescents at risk of social exclusion, etc.), preferably through qualitative research, ethnography and participant observation.

During my research career I have carried out two research stays at the Paris Descartes University, France (2010 and 2013), one at the University of Reno-Nevada, USA (2012) and one at Monash University, Australia (2023).

I participate in the 'Soca-rel Critical Physical Education Seminar', I have given conferences and training, I participate in research projects at a national and international level and I publish and review articles in impact journals.
