I am a PhD Candidate in Mathematics at Purdue University, co-advised by Fei Xue and Jing Wang. I specialize in Probabilistic Modeling, Stochastic Analysis, and High-Dimensional Statistical Inference. My research in Statistical Genetics centers on extracting signal from extremely noisy data, and I enjoy translating theoretical stochastic frameworks into practical, high-performance models, most recently as an AI Research Intern at Blue Wave AI Labs.

My foundation comes from Mathematical Olympiads, where I earned gold and silver medals at international university competitions. Since 2019 I have helped select and train Colombia’s national Olympiad teams, most recently as Deputy Leader of the Colombian team at the 67th IMO.

Research Interests
