I'm leading an All-Sky Survey high-resolution spectroscopic Census of nearby K-Dwarfs, the largest of its kind to this date. This effort aims to characterize these stars' fundamental properties, activity levels, ages, and ultimately will help for future studies of the habitability of exoplanets around these stars.

I grew up in Culiacán, Sinaloa, México, and earned my Bachelor degree in Astronomy from
Universidad Autónoma de Sinaloa. Raised too in my beloved Mazatlán, Sinaloa.
Previous from entering a Ph.D. program, I worked three years with Prof. Yilen Gómez-Maqueo Chew
at
Instituto de Astronomía, UNAM,
and the SAINT-EX Observatory.
Outside of academia, I enjoy watching films, baseball (go LA Dodgers!), hanging out with friends, and I'm
passionate about worldwide dance music, curate playlists, DJing, and discover new music.
