I am a fifth year PhD Candidate at the University of California, Santa Cruz, working with Professor C. Seshadhri. Before joining UCSC, I completed my MS in Computer Science at the University of Southern California. Before that, in Spain, I studied at the University of Malaga, where I was advised by Professor Marlon Nunez.
My main area of research is in subgraph counting, developing efficient algorithms for sparse graphs and finding fine-grained complexity bounds. Part of my work also involves implementing these algorithms in practice, obtaining algorithms that work well with real-world graphs with good theoretical guarantees.
