About
I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Mathematics at NC State University, advised by Professor Patrick L. Combettes. I completed my MSc in Applied Mathematics at the University of Chile in 2022, under the guidance of Professor Héctor Ramírez. I previously worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant at NIC Chile Research Labs, where I focused on studying Internet Quality of Service (QoS) through stochastic and optimization models.
My research interests include nonlinear analysis, convex optimization, and stochastic optimization, focusing on the interplay between randomness and deterministic optimization methods.
