I am an assistant professor at the School of Design at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, an adjunct researcher at the FAIR Millennium Nucleus (Futures of Artificial Intelligence Research), and an associate researcher at the UCLAB at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam. My research and creative practice focus on the potential of data visualization to  critically engage with contemporary social, ecological, and technological issues.
