I am a Ramón y Cajal and Ikerbasque Research Fellow at BCAM since 2022. I will be promoted to Associate in November 2026.

My principal research area is local algebra; loosely speaking this means that I study singularities, as local rings, using techniques of commutative algebra. A particular way to do so is via numerical invariants, numbers that are supposed to represent an aspect of the complexity.
