About me

I am an Associate Professor in the School of Industrial Engineering at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV), Chile. I currently serve as Director of the Logistics and Production Laboratory.

My academic background is in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research. My work combines mathematical programming, exact methods, and metaheuristics to address complex logistics and transportation problems arising in real-world decision-making contexts.

My research has been supported by competitive national funding programs, including FONDECYT Iniciación, Regular, FONDEF, and has resulted in publications in international peer-reviewed journals, conference presentations, and applied research projects with public and private stakeholders.

Additional information about my work can be found in the projects and publications section. If you have any questions, are interested in potential collaborations, or would like to share your thoughts, feel free to get in touch by email or by the contact form.
