About Me

I am a final-year PhD student at Johns Hopkins University in Computer Science, where I am part of the Advanced Robotics and Computationally Augmented Environments (ARCADE) research group, led by Professor Mathias Unberath. My research focuses on developing human-centered Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions for Digital Health, integrating human-computer interaction methods and human factors engineering into AI design and evaluations of human-AI collaboration. Currently, I am working on developing AI interventions aimed at enhancing medical training through adaptive guidance and investigating factors that impact the ecological validity of research involving human-AI studies.

I am a Fulbright Scholar from Colombia, awarded the scholarship for my PhD studies. My PhD research is supported by the Link Foundation Fellowship in Modeling, Simulation, and Training. I am also one of the founding members of the new Special Interest Group on Human Factors and Human-Computer Interaction at MICCAI.

Before joining JHU, I completed a Master in Biomedical Engineering at Universidad de los Andes, where I was part of the Biomedical Computer Vision Group, led by Professor Pablo Arbeláez. I graduated with honors in both my Master’s and Bachelor’s programs in Biomedical Engineering.

Overall, my interests are in Intelligent Systems, Technology in Healthcare and Well-being, and Cognitive Science and Psychology. I am passionate about Astronomy.

I am currently on the academic job market. Here's my CV:

Other than research, I enjoy baking (my grandma’s recipes), latin dance (I performed at a Baltimore Orioles game), and cycling (my longest ride so far is 60 miles/96 km)
