Industrial Engineer, MSc in Engineering Sciences with a specialization in Logistics and Operations Management, and PhD in Engineering Sciences. His academic training has focused on the development and application of quantitative methods for decision-making in complex and uncertain settings.

He is currently an Assistant Professor at the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Universidad de los Andes. Throughout his career, he has conducted undergraduate and graduate teaching and research activities, particularly in the areas of optimization, simulation, data science, and their applications to energy and logistics problems.

His academic and professional trajectory combines applied research, university teaching, participation in projects with impact on energy, water, transportation, and logistics, and the development of various consulting projects in the areas of safety, health, and operations management. He has contributed to initiatives funded by ANID and regional governments, as well as studies related to hydroelectric resource management, decision support under drought conditions, and freight transportation analysis in port cities.

His work has resulted in publications in leading international journals in operations research, energy, water resources, and risk analysis, and has been presented at prestigious national and international conferences. His distinctions include the 2023 Teaching Excellence Award from the School of Engineering at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, the 2025 Best Research Oriented Paper Award from the Journal of Water Resources Planning and Management, and recognition for the best doctoral thesis in 2025 granted by the Chilean Institute for Operations Research (ICHIO).

His main research interests lie at the intersection of operations research, optimization under uncertainty, and prescriptive analytics for complex systems. His work has focused on the development and application of stochastic and robust optimization models, simulation, and quantitative methods to support planning and operations in energy, water, logistics, and transportation systems.

In the energy and water domain, he has studied hydrothermal scheduling, hydroelectric resource management, multipurpose reservoir operations, and streamflow forecasting, with a particular emphasis on decision-making under uncertainty and on the integration of water resources and large-scale power systems. Part of this work was recognized with the Best Research Oriented Paper Award 2025 granted by the Environmental & Water Resources Institute.

He also conducts applied research in logistics and freight transportation, particularly in modeling and analysis of freight transport in port cities, and logistics network design, incorporating statistical, econometric, and spatial modeling tools. 

In addition, he has worked on simulation and risk analysis applications in natural disaster and evacuation contexts, as well as research aimed at identifying trends and future research opportunities.

University teaching experience at both undergraduate and graduate levels in engineering, operations research, optimization, simulation, and data science for decision-making. He is currently an Assistant Professor at the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Universidad de los Andes, where he teaches courses such as Stochastic Models and Applied Statistics, and also contributes to graduate programs as an approved thesis supervisor.

Previously, he served as a Research Professor at Universidad Andrés Bello, where he taught undergraduate and graduate courses in areas including optimization under uncertainty, simulation, operations research, logistics and supply chain, optimization methods for decision-making, and facility location and network design, among others. At the same institution, he also supervised undergraduate and graduate theses and participated in graduate program governance through academic committees and faculty membership. 

He has also taught at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile in both undergraduate and master’s programs, in courses related to optimization, simulation, and decision-making under uncertainty. His teaching performance was recognized with the 2023 Teaching Excellence Award from the UC School of Engineering.
