About Me
Hello! I am a Colombian student pursuing a Master’s degree in Astrophysics at the Instituto de Astronomía of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). I work with Prof. Yilen Gómez Maqueo Chew’s research group on analyzing the light curves of transiting exoplanets.

My work
I am currently working in the development of PROFE, a data reduction pipeline for the OPTICAM instrument mounted on the 2.1m Telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional San Pedro Mártir (OAN-SPM). PROFE performs the necessary preprocessing of OPTICAM data before the standard reduction of simultaneous multiband photometry of transiting exoplanets. I also analyze light curves from multiple confirmed and candidate transiting exoplanets.
