Archaeologist and postdoctoral researcher at the Autonomous University of Barcelona in Spain. She is a doctor in Natural Sciences, specialized in archaeobotany, with experience in anthracology, carpology and dendrology. His research focuses on the use, processing and management of plant resources by hunter-gatherer societies in southern South America during the Holocene, with special emphasis on Tierra del Fuego. He is currently developing research that extends archaeobotanical studies to sites in Tierra del Fuego, working in an interdisciplinary way to deepen the human-environmental interactions of the region.
