About me

I am a neuroscientist interested in how the brain processes and extracts information from sensory stimuli to modulate behavior, and how these circuits evolve. Currently, I am a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Dr. Rachel Wilson at Harvard Medical School. I grew up in Lima (Peru), where I did my undergraduate in Genetics at UNMSM and came to the US for graduate school in Neuroscience at Princeton University, where I worked on how the fruit fly’s brain processes ‘love songs’ in Mala Murthy’s laboratory. When not in the microscopy room, I could be found playing soccer or running outdoors.
