Get in touch
I am always glad to hear about collaborations, student opportunities and shared grant ideas.
My academic path began with a degree in Psychology at the University of Málaga (UMA). I then moved to the University of Granada (UGR) for my Master's and PhD, joining the Memory and Language group led by Prof. Mª Teresa Bajo. Along the way I completed international research stays with Prof. Eleonora Rossi — at California State Polytechnic University and the University of Florida — and I am currently based at Northwestern University (Prof. Viorica Marian's lab) as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Fellow.

Open Science
Transparent & reproducible by design
I am committed to transparent, reproducible research. Within my MSCA project I developed a comprehensive Data Management Plan to systematically share data, code and experimental materials.
- Open-access publication whenever possible
- Open data, code and materials via the Open Science Framework (OSF)
- Reproducible analysis pipelines (R, Python, MATLAB)
- Preregistration of confirmatory studies

Training & teaching
Training the next generation
Supporting the next generation of researchers is central to how I work. I mentor and supervise undergraduate and graduate students across institutions in Spain and the United States, including students on international exchange programmes and through the APS Mentorship Program, and I teach at undergraduate level. My aim is to offer hands-on training in open, reproducible psycholinguistics and to help early-career researchers find their own questions.
- Supervision of Bachelor's and undergraduate research projects at the University of Granada
- Mentoring of undergraduate research assistants at Northwestern University
- Tutoring of international exchange students (CASA Programme — Brown & Harvard)
- Mentor in the APS Mentorship Program for international doctoral candidates
- Mentor in the Arqus Student Agora programme
- Undergraduate teaching in Psychology, Speech Therapy and Occupational Therapy (University of Granada)
