I´m a paleontology technician working for CONICET at the Geosciences Department (Paleontology Area) at the CRILAR (Centro Regional de Investigaciones de La Rioja) institute, located at Anillaco, La Rioja province, Northwest Argentina.


I work along with Dr. Lucas Fiorelli and Lic. Martín Hechenleitner on fieldtrips to Triassic, Cretaceous and Miocene sedimentary outcrops looking for new fossil remains and locations with archosaurians and mammals. The main fieldtrips were to the Triassic of the Chañares, Ischigualasto and Los Colorados formations (in San Juan and La Rioja provinces), as well as the Cretaceous Los Llanos Formation and the Miocene Salicas Formation (both in La Rioja province).


My main labor consists on the extraction of vertebrate fossil remains found on our filedtrips and the subsequent preparation of the fossil materials at the CRILAR laboratories.
