About
I grew up in Puyehue, a town in North Patagonian of Chile. Then, I moved to study a B.S. Business Engineer and a M.S. in Economics at University of Concepcion. In 2014, I worked in the Statistics Department of 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). At present, I’m part of Data-driven Intelligent Systems lab (DAISY), WPI. My advisor is Elke A. Rundensteiner.
