About me
As of December 31st 2020 I'm appointed associate professor at the University of la Réunion - Île de la Réunion (Indian Ocean) - France. Before that I held a postdoc position at Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic. I got my PhD in 2016 at Stockholm University, under the direction of Erik Palmgren and Henrik Forssell. Previously I had obtained my master in Buenos Aires University. I'm interested in logic and foundations, especially categorical logic, set theory, model theory and metamathematics.
