About Me
I pursued a degree in Electronic Engineering and obtained a Master's Degree in Music at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). During my time at UNAM, I received a grant for a master's internship at the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) at the University of Leiden in Holland. Subsequently, I completed my PhD at the Digital Media Lab of the University of Bremen in Germany, focusing on embodied music cognition and video games. Currently, I hold the position of a postdoctoral researcher at the Veritas lab in the Computer Science Department at CICESE.
