A little about me

My passions are astrophysics and space sciences. I specialize in the study of the Sun through the observation of seismic waves, white light, magnetic fields, and all kinds of high energy particles.

My CV here

I am a passionate student of science originally born in Bogotá, Colombia. I am currently member of the scientific teams of FOXSI and the Parker Solar Probe, both being NASA funded solar-dedicated space instruments. My space hardware experience lies on the participation of the two most recent FOXSI sounding rocket launches. I am currently analysing data gathered during these two flights, as well as the brand new observations obtained by the Parker Solar Probe during its first perihelions.

FOXSI

The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager

I work on FOXSI-3's optics and conducts collimators testing and calibration. I also analyze data from past FOXSI flights.
