I am Assistant Staff at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory. I earned a Bachelor’s degree from Harvard University, where I studied Applied Mathematics and Computer Science. I was born in La Paz, Bolivia.

I aspire to begin a PhD in machine learning in the near future. I'm interested in the systems that underlie today's cutting edge machine learning techniques.

I've previously interned in the cryptography division of Amazon Web Services, where I made changes to a code signing API. In the Silver Lab at Harvard Medical School, I used ensemble methods to count and measure molecular structures in cells.
