Born in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mr. Zamora admired and collected seashells on the beach as a child. On a hike as an adult, a chance discovery of a fossil within a rock reignited his curiosity. After moving to San Antonio and exploring the creeks, he began applying his engineering and geology expertise to better understand the fossils in the greater San Antonio and Hill Country area. As his collection grew, he took the time to clean, study, and curate it, developing this Exhibition to share with the community and inspire curiosity.
