What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply machine learning, NLP, LLMs, and cybersecurity research to complex real-world problems while continuing to learn, research, and build practical AI systems.

At Universidad de Murcia, I research continuous decentralized learning of IoT devices’ behavioural profiles, building tools that collect and analyze user security, privacy, and telemetry data.

I developed a Flutter mobile application and a custom web application for controlled behavioral-data experiments. I apply hierarchical clustering to identify user security profiles from privacy choices and GPS usage.

I also build NLP pipelines with Gemma, Mistral, and Qwen to generate phishing datasets and evaluate threats against SpamAssassin, Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook. My work includes topic modeling, keyword extraction, semantic evaluation, and data preprocessing with Python, Pandas, and Scikit-learn.
