About

I hold a PhD in Geophysics from the University of La Plata (UNLP), Argentina, where I specialized in computational poroelasticity and multiphase fluid flow in porous rocks. My academic achievements include the Best GPA Award in Geophysics (2012), the Joaquín V. González Prize for outstanding students (2013), and the Distinguished Postgraduate Recognition from the Faculty of Astronomy and Geophysics (UNLP). From 2018 to 2023, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Group of Klaus Holliger at the University of Lausanne (UNIL), Switzerland. Currently, I am a researcher at YPF Tecnología, contributing to R&D in technologies for Argentina’s energy industry. My research interests lie in the hydromechanical behavior of porous media and its implications for geomechanics, wave propagation, flow dynamics, and seismoelectrical responses. I aim to develop improved physical models based on the poro-elastic properties of rocks under stress.
