I am an Assistant Professor at the Instituto de Fisica of UNAM.

My research focuses on theoretical high-energy physics and my interests range from the phenomenology of Standard Model to more formal aspects of field theories and scattering amplitudes:

  • Phenomenology of the Top Quark at LHC and beyond
  • Multi-loop scattering amplitudes for massive particles
  • Quantum effective field theories of gravity and their implications for classical observables

Before joining UNAM in 2023, I held postdoctoral positions at Department of Physics of the Florida State University and the theoretical particle physics group at the Humboldt University of Berlin. I obtained my PhD from the RWTH Aachen University at the Institute for Particle Physics and Cosmology.
