Biography

I was born in Tudela (March 26th, 1998), a small town in the Spanish province of Navarre. I moved to Zaragoza (Aragón, Spain) with my parents when I was one year old. I grew up and lived in Zaragoza until fifth grade. Due to family matters, I lived for one year (2008-2009) in Berkeley, California. I studied under full english linguistic immersion in Kensington Elementary School. That's when I learned to speak english like a native speaker. After that year, I moved back to Zaragoza where I finished elementary school and secondary school.

When I was in tenth grade, I was awarded the Fundación de Amancio Ortega scholarship to study eleventh grade in a Canadian high-school, and to live with a Canadian host family. During this year I discovered my passion for Computer Engineering and Computer Science. I moved back to Spain to finish high-school and graduated with honors.

I was accepted into the Computer Science and Computer Engineering undergraduate program at University of Zaragoza. I studied Computer Science from 2016 to 2020, specializing myself in Computer Architecture. During my last year I was awarded a collaborative scholarship to undergo a reasearch project under the supervision of a research group from the department. The research project was later published in a national research conference for computer architecture. This sparked my passion for computer architecture research.

I applied to the Electrical and Computer Engineering masters program at University of Toronto during the 2020 summer, and I was accepted under the supervision of Prof. Andreas Moshovos in his research group. I graduated from my masters program in November 2022 and was later accepted into the PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering program at University of Toronto, which I am currently pursuing. I have been a graduate researcher since September 2020 and continue to do so in the present. I work on deep learning hardware/software acceleration research, as well as on brain-computer interfacing and neuron spike sorting.
