I was born and raised in Guatemala, and I’ve had a deep interest in the natural sciences since I was a child.
Most of my research focuses on combining statistics and machine learning to perform parameter inference in cosmological problems. In the past, my research involved modeling Young Stellar Objects and circumstellar structures around young stars.
Bringing science to a wider audience is, in my opinion, an important part in the development of any society. Thus, I spend some of my time doing various outreach activities, especially in Spanish.
