Hello!

I studied statistics at the Institute of Statistics, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, graduating in 2015. I briefly worked in industry as a Statistical Analyst at Equifax before starting my Ph.D. in Statistics a the Department of Statistics, Universidad de Valparaíso, Chile. I finished my my doctoral degree with the thesis titled “A flexible Clayton-like spatial copula with application to bounded support data”, under the supervision of Prof. Moreno Bevilacqua, Ph.D. and Prof. Christian Caamaño, Ph.D. Since 2017 I’ve been lecturing undergraduate courses in statistics and related topics in different institutions. Currently, I work as an Academic Instructor at the Department of Industrial Engineering of the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María in Santiago, Chile.

My main research interests are spatial statistics, copula theory, computational statistics, applied statistics and machine learning. Other personal interests include: politics, philosophy, finance and economics.

I live in Santiago, Chile with my dog Franz.

I built this website to provide an easy access to academic information. The tools I used were blogdown and Hugo (with Hugo-apéro theme), and deployed using Netlify.
