I am a lecturer/assistant professor at the University of Murcia.  My research is focused on the application of mathematical analysis techniques  to risk analysis, probability theory, and stochastic optimization. I run different courses in statistics at the University of Murcia. 

Previously, among other academic appointments, I was a lecturer in Financial Mathematics and the Programme Director of the MSc in Financial Mathematics at the University College Dublin, and a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Konstanz in Germany in the working group of Stochastics and Financial Mathematics.  Prior to that, I held positions in the financial industry as a quantitative analyst at Banesto (Banco Santander) and as a Senior Risk Analyst at BBVA in Madrid, Spain.
