About


I am a Ph.D. in Mathematical and Computational Modeling. My research focuses on applying complex systems (especially agent-based models) to model different areas. I am currently a researcher at the Norwegian Research Center SA - NORCE. 
CURRENT POSITION:
Researcher - Norwegian Research Center SA - NORCE: May 2023 - present
Researcher at the Center for Modeling Social Systems - CMSS.

FORMER POSITION:
 
Research Fellow at Queen’s University Belfast: October 2022 – May 2023
GroundsWell Project –Work package 2: Informing and simulating system-based urban green and blue spaces transformations using agent-based modeling. Aiming to co-develop and implement agent-based models that guide, facilitate, and contribute to hypothesis generation and data collation; and synthesize learning, and use of multiple layers of evidence to inform future UGBS initiatives. 


Research Assistant at the Observatory for Urban Health (OSUBH): March 2021 – October 2022:
·        SALURBAL Project (Salud Urbana en America Latina) - funded by the Wellcome Trust as part of its Our Planet, Our Health initiative, which focuses on research examining the connections between the environment and human health. 
·        GDAR (Global Diet and Activity Research) – funded by NIHR Global Health Research Initiative, focusing on how physical, policy and social environments influence diet and physical activity.
