I hold an interdisciplinary background that includes a Public Health, Social Work and Philosophy, which has helped me to enhance my professional skills across diverse research projects focused on patients with advanced diseases and their family caregivers.
Currently, I am working as a research assistant at the School of Public Health in UC Chile.
