I am currently an assistant professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering at Universidad de Chile. Previously, I was a professor at the Engineering Institute of Universidad de O'Higgins, and before that an IVADO Post-doctoral Fellow at Polytechnique Montréal.
I studied Mathematical Engineering in the Engineering School of Universidad de Chile and obtained my Ph.D. from the IEOR Department of Columbia University, under the supervision of Dan Bienstock.
Broadly speaking, my research interests fit into the category of Mixed-Integer Non-Linear Optimization, including both theoretical perspectives and implementation of efficient algorithms to address this type of problems. Other related topics I'm interested are Combinatorial Optimization, Polynomial Optimization and applications of these methodologies to Mining and Energy.
