ABOUT ME
Hello! I am a physicist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign studying gravity, black holes, and gravitational waves. My research spans astrophysics, and condensed matter.
I am happy to talk anytime with students interested in working on a research project or outreach activities.
I grew up in Quito, Ecuador. Besides Physics, I like art, adventures (really, I love to go on adventures!), hiking, and animals.
Here are some research institutes where I have participated in internships, research stays or summer schools. You can find exciting research opportunities in all of them!
