I hold an interdisciplinary background that includes 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.
