Philosophy

“The sweetest and most
inoffensive path of life
leads through the
avenues of science and
learning; and whoever
can either remove any
obstruction in this way,
or open up any new
prospect, ought, so far,
to be esteemed a
benefactor to mankind”
--Hume

Welcome !

    I'm a graduate student at the Department of Astronomy at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I was born in Chile, the longest country in the world and home to some of the greatest telescopes on Earth.
    I'm currently studying dynamics through N-body simulations in two fronts: extrasolar planet formation and detection with Professor Greg Laughlin and the role of black hole recoil in galaxy formation/evolution with Professor Piero Madau.
