I am a mexican physicist, interested in developing new computational tools for multidisciplinary research.

I earned a bachelors degree in physics from the University of Sonora in 2020, as well as a Master of Science in physics from the University of Texas at El Paso in 2023. I joined Northeastern University on September 2023 as a Physics PhD student.

During my masters, I was a member of the Molecular Magnetism and Quantum Thoery Lab, and worked building new features for NRLMOL (Naval Research Laboratory Molecular Library), a Density Functional Theory code, under the advisory of Dr. Mark Pederson and Dr Alan Jackson.
