Dear reader,
I share with you these words, in case you were wondering about me. I was born in the Santiago, Chile of 1989, a big city in a valley surrounded by mountains and a country in the midst of important political and social changes. I was fortunate to grow up in a loving household composed by my mother, father, and younger sister.
My academic interests developed into a triangle of sorts: natural sciences, literature and philosophy, and visual arts. I decided to study astronomy, as a way to try to understand the big picture and how our existence fits in it. I moved to Germany in 2016 to pursue a higher education. I hold a doctorate in astrophysics and currently work in the semiconductor industry.
In my free time, I like playing video games, reading, writing, drawing, gardening, and daydreaming. At present, I live in Mannheim, Germany with my fiancé Ilja and my lovely cat Pamuk.
