WORK
Most of the future is undefined. Defining it is part of the work I do.

| 2024 | Acoustic Levitation | ML pipeline for biological sample sorting. Nature Communications. |
| 2022.11 | COVID Vaccine Model | Distribution modelling for Spain. Adopted into national policy. |
At 12, I helped run a cafe. At 16, I started a small profitable business matching online nannies with families, and founded AYM, a worldwide mathematical modelling competition that brought together 500+ students. My team was twice named #1 in Spain for mathematical modelling; our vaccine distribution proposal was adopted into national policy.
I also ran a few 400-person MUN conferences along the way.
My first proper research was at the GRASP Lab at UPenn (robotics, manipulation, control). From there, a full-ride scholarship to UCL, where I studied Robotics and AI.
Outside the work, I love specialty coffee, art, photography, hiking, pottery, and read a lot of books and poetry. I think a lot about open-ended RL, AI safety, and agents. I care deeply about community and sharing opportunities, this year I organized 3 hackathons, with AgentVerse being one of world's larger agentic AI hackathons.
