I am a third year PhD student and research assistant in the Human Dynamics group at the MIT Media Laboratory.

Before coming to MIT I earned a bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communications Engineering, and a master's degree in Electronic Systems Engineering, both from Tecnológico de Monterrey (Campus Monterrey), Mexico. Once at MIT I received a master's degree in Media, Arts, and Sciences from the MIT Media Laboratory.
