"Don’t look for the perfect moment, just find the moment and make it perfect. Joy is the essence of success"
Who I Am
I was born and raised in Huesca, always with the mountains close by. With my parents and family, going hiking or skiing was — and still is — one of the best possible plans. The mountains have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, just like cross-country skiing, which I started practicing at a very young age thanks to them.
My passion for geology came a little later. First it was dinosaurs, then the curiosity to understand how the landscape I saw every day had become what it is. When you realize that studying doesn’t feel like an effort and your curiosity keeps growing with everything you learn, you begin to think you could actually dedicate your life to it. And if that profession allows you to combine your hobbies with your responsibilities, it’s perfect. In my case, researching in high mountain environments means that some workdays include alpinism.
Today, between fieldwork, laboratory, and computer, I dedicate much of my time to studying glaciers, climate, and landscape — and the rest to exploring the mountains by running, hiking, or skiing. I’m not a fan of routines; I prefer each day to be different.
PhD in Geology – Glaciers & Climate Change
I’m a researcher. My PhD focused on the evolution of the glaciers of the Benasque Valley over the past 75,000 years and their current state of conservation.
Science Communication
I enjoy sharing knowledge about the mountains in a way that is accessible, engaging, and understandable for everyone.
Cross-Country Ski Instructor
The sport that has always been with me and a hobby that has become part of my profession.
Mountain Guide
Geology outreach within four walls is great — but even better if we turn the mountains into our classroom. I lead GlacioPyrene, where our goal is to help you see the landscape from a different perspective.
Resilience
The right path isn’t always the first one you choose. Learning to adapt to change and adversity is part of the journey — the goal is always to enjoy the process.
My Journey
I hold a PhD in Geology, specializing in glaciers and climate change. My thesis was a long and demanding journey, but also a privilege: deciphering the evolution of the mountains I call home has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.
I’m passionate about science communication and enjoy sharing knowledge in a close and accessible way. I’m also a cross-country ski instructor — the sport that has accompanied me since childhood — and a mountain guide. Through GlacioPyrene, I aim to turn the mountains into an open-air classroom.
From a sporting perspective, I’ve never particularly stood out — but that has never held me back. One of my best experiences was participating in the YCC of the UTMB in Chamonix, where I enjoyed a truly unique atmosphere.
Professionally, completing my PhD has been my greatest challenge — a sustained effort that was absolutely worth it. In the medium term, I’m researching how climate change affects high-mountain tourism, with the aim of proposing measures to improve safety for alpinists in the Pyrenees. In sport, I dream of one day participating in major cross-country ski races such as the Vasaloppet or La Transjurassienne.
Studying geology and climate allows me to understand the mountains differently: to look at the landscape with curiosity and the ability to imagine distant times that no longer exist, yet remain alive in the rocks and glaciers.
My Outdoor Essence
When I head to the mountains, I always bring… A first-aid kit, radio, gloves, Gore-Tex shell, and warm clothing — no matter the season.
If I wanted to introduce someone to climbing, I would take them to… That’s a very difficult question — there are so many spectacular places that I couldn’t choose just one…
When I’m not in the mountains, I’m… Sometimes it’s hard, but my body also needs rest. Spending time with friends (without going to the mountains) is always a good option.
The most important thing I’ve learned thanks to climbing is… That what truly matters is enjoying the journey and the process.
A landscape or moment in the mountains I will never forget… My first 3,000-meter peak: Posets.
