I'm developing numerical models for nonlinear gravitation and astrophysics at the Instituto de Ciencias Nucleares, UNAM, including coupled accretion and growth processes with interacting baryonic and scalar-field components.

Across postdoctoral research at Universitat de València and doctoral work at IGFAE, I built and extended Python-, C-, Fortran-, and Mathematica-based software for coupled ODE/PDE systems. I modified core routines in a complex C-based code for rotating relativistic systems, built automated parameter-scan and analysis workflows, and validated models through convergence control, consistency tests, and known physical limits.

My Ph.D. research and peer-reviewed work in computational astrophysics, gravitational physics, dark-matter modelling, and numerical relativity focus on translating mathematically challenging problems into reliable numerical implementations. I also communicate technical results internationally and review for Physical Review D and General Relativity and Gravitation.
