I am a Lecturer (Profesor Ayudante Doctor) in mathematics at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Previously I was a postdoc at Universitat de Barcelona, Université catholique de Louvain, and WWU Münster. I obtained my PhD at University of Barcelona under the supervision of Carles Casacuberta and Oscar Randal-Williams. Here is my contact data.

My research is about algebraic and geometric topology, particularly the homotopy theory of moduli spaces of submanifolds. The prominent examples of such moduli spaces are configuration spaces (when the submanifolds have dimension 0) and knot spaces (when the submanifolds have dimension 1). This year (2023-2024) I am organising together with Carles Casacuberta and Aniceto Murillo the TDA Course of the Spanish Topology Network.
