Chemical and Materials Theorist.

Alfred P. Sloan Graduate Fellow (2020)

B.S.Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) (2020)

First-year PhD student in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry at UC San Diego in the lab of Professor Francesco Paesani as a Sloan Scholar.

During my doctoral studies, I will work on the development, implementation and application of many-body models for molecular simulations (interested in both classical- and quantum-dynamical) in the gas and condensed phases. I will also continue to work actively in quantum-mechanical materials modeling from the solid-state standpoint.

Methods I am interested in:

• Many-Body Molecular Dynamics
• Density Functional Theory
• Tight Binding and effective Hamiltonian models
• MORE TO COME

Materials I am interested in:

• Quantum Materials (e.g. 2D magnets, superconductors, Topological materials)
• Semiconductors and mixed conductors (ionic)
• MOFs/COFs
• vdW heterostructures
• f-Block compounds
