I began studying Marine Sciences in 2003 and also took a Master’s degree in Oceanography at the University of Cadiz (Spain). From early on in my degree I was interested in marine geology. In 2009 I started my PhD on the Plio-Quaternary contouritic deposition of the Alboran Sea (SW Mediterranean Sea), under the supervision of Dr. G. Ercilla (ICM-CSIC), Dr. F.J. Hernandez-Molina (University of Vigo) and Dr. T. Medialdea (IGME), working in all three institutions. I finished my PhD in 2016. In 2014 I moved to Ghent University (Belgium) to analyse the sedimentation in the Central Pacific (CCZ) and the interaction with bottom currents with Prof. Dr. D. Van Rooij. In early 2019 I rejoined the ICM-CSIC, working in the Fauces Project to study the risks at the head of turbidite canyons.
