Since September 2026 I am Assistant Professor (tenure track) in Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC).
Recently, I received the Extraordinary Doctorate Award 2022/2023 (UPC). I was also awarded the Premios Vicent Caselles 2024 by the Royal Spanish Mathematical Society (RSME) and the BBVA Foundation.
From 2023 to 2026, I was Hill Assistant Professor (postdoc) at Rutgers University, mentored by Yanyan Li.
I obtained my PhD in Applied Math in July 2023 at UPC, under the supervision of Xavier Cabré. Before that, I received a M.Sc. in Mathematics from the University of Bonn and a double B.Sc. in Mathematics and Physics from CFIS-UPC.
My research focuses on qualitative aspects of elliptic Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) and related problems, with an emphasis on regularity theory. Some topics that I am interested in include:
Stable solutions
Integro-differential equations
Calculus of Variations and Minimal surfaces
Transmission and Free boundary problems
Fully nonlinear equations
