PhD candidate in Artificial Intelligence

Norwegian University of Science and Technology

PhD candidate in Artificial Intelligence at the Department of Computer Science of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. My research interests include analysis of evolutionary computation for stochastic optimisation as well as constraint satisfaction and computability. I enjoy puzzles, maths, nature and music. Lately I have been working on a playground for evolutionary computation in Julia.

I was previously a research associate at the Research Group with Strategic Focus in Intelligent Systems of Tecnológico de Monterrey, under the bio-inspired systems line of research, and an associate lecturer in the Department of Computer Science.

I also spent some time as a research assistant and lead developer at the Department of Mathematics at Tecnológico de Monterrey, where I implemented online evaluations for two math MOOCs Matemáticas y Movimiento and El Cálculo, among many other projects focusing on mathematics education.
