Overview
Hi!
I am a PhD Student at the School of Computer Science and Informatics. My interests are related to Human-Computer Interaction, Co-design, Digital Health and design technologies for vulnerable communities.
I have a background in Human-Computer Interaction, Computer Systems Engineering and FrontEnd development.
I am convinced that research can help to build a better world.

Research
My main research interests are related, but not exclusively, to Human-Computer Interaction, co-design, digital health and design technologies for vulnerable communities.
Currently, I am in the first year of my PhD under the supervision of Dr. Nervo Verdezoto, Dr. Carolina Fuentes and Dr. Katarzyna Stawarz. I am working in understanding the co-design methods with and for vulnerable communities in the Global South.
