My research focuses on the evolution of speech and vocal learning, and their role in the emergence of language more broadly.
I am also interested in the conceptual issues that arise when study the evolution of language and its subcomponents.

I recently obtained a PhD (cum laude) at the University of Barcelona, under the supervision of Cedric Boeckx and Bridget D. Samuels.

I am an external member of the Cognitive Biology of Language Group and the University of Barcelona Institute for Complex Systems (UBICS).
