About
I grew up in Puyehue, a town in North Patagonian of Chile. Then, I moved to study a B.S. in Business Engineering and a M.S. in Economics at the University of Concepcion. In 2014, I worked in the Statistics Department of the Central Bank of Chile. After four years working, supported by Fulbright and the National Agency for Research and Development Chile, I have been nominated for a PhD Data Science at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), Massachusetts, USA (2018-2023). In 2024, I did a Postdoc in Data Fusion and Machine Learning at Sanofi company. Currently, I’m Assistant Professor at Department of Computer Science, Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, Chile.
