I am Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute of Engineering Sciences, O'Higgins University, Chile. 

In 2022, under the supervision of Pedro Pérez-Aros, Aris Daniilidis, and Abderrahim Hantoute, I obtained a PhD at the Department of Mathematical Engineering (DIM) of the University of Chile.

My research interests are: Convex Analysis, Nonsmooth and Variational Analysis, and Stochastic Optimization.
