I am an invertebrate paleobiologist interested in the evolution of major animal groups during the Paleozoic, with particular emphasis on the Cambrian Explosion and the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event. Originally from Mexico City, I obtained my undergraduate degree in Biology from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, and in 2008 completed the MSc in Palaeobiology at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom. I then moved to the University of Cambridge from 2009 to 2018, first as a PhD student at the Department of Earth Sciences, and then as a Research Fellow of Emmanuel College and the Department of Zoology.
