About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Devote time to friends, music, astrophysics and musical instruments. Solve the Universe.

ABOUT ME

Astrophysics is my subject and I think that the world would be a much better place if everyone knew a little bit more about our Universe! Getting to know new people from different places/backgrounds is one of the best parts of (this) life. Right now i'm researching about black holes and planet formation. I love playing music, especially on charango. Ah!
I'm Chilean, living the life in Santiago, Chile these days. Used to live in Oxford UK for a few years while doing graduate studies and working as a postdoc at University.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is my song and i'm gonna sing/play it out loud!
The sky is the same for everyone.
Knowledge will set you free.
