I was born in 1994, Concepción, Chile.


Concepción, Chile.

I did my bachelor in Mathematics at Universidad de Concepción, between 2012 and 2013, during this period I studied Algebraic Geometry under the advice of Antonio Laface. My first encounter with Algebraic Geometry was focused on linear systems of hypersurfaces and problems around the SHGH conjecture.

In 2014, I started my master in Mathematics at Universidad de Concepción, and I devoted some time to do research in the topology and singularities of algebraic varieties with torus action. During this period my advisor was Antonio Laface and my co-advisor Alvaro Liendo.

In Fall 2015, I started my Ph.D in Mathematics at University of Utah, USA. During my Ph.D I worked on questions around the minimal model program under the advice of Christopher Hacon. I finished my Ph.D in the summer of 2019. My thesis contained some new results regarding termination of flips.

In Fall 2019, I started working at Princeton University as an Instructor in Mathematics. During my stay at Princeton, together with several co-authors, we proved new results regarding klt singularities: their topology, reductive quotients, and minimal log discrepancies. We also gave a characterization of toric singularities from the perspective of the singularities of the minimal model program.

Starting Fall 2022, I will be an assistant professor at UCLA.
In the next few years, I plan to research in the following directions:
i) Algebraic singularities: topology, quotients, covers, and other invariants.
ii) Minimal Model Program: Termination of flips & minimal log discrepancies.
iii) Fano and Calabi-Yau varieties: Geometry, topology, and arithmetic.
