High Energy Physics, Ph.D. from the Universidad de Los Andes (Bogotá, Colombia), with a Master's degree in Physics and a bachelor's degree in Physics from the same university. During her doctoral studies, she worked at CERN -Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire- (Geneva, Switzerland) in the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment as an associate member, investigating Higgs in the muon decay channel. She also worked as a visiting scientist at FNAL -Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory- (Batavia, Illinois), researching the Higgs decay channel in Z boson + photon. In addition, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia in the DataLab group. She worked on quantifying the perception of security in a city using social networks as a database, its relationship with crime, and the interpretability of Machine Learning (ML) models. The main research topics include computational modeling and phenomenological analysis of high-energy physics and its applications, as well as big data, ML, and IA applications in education, smart mobility, energy, and smart cities. She is recognized as a Candidate for SNI and Junior Research for the Ministry of Science in Colombia, with a research production of index H91.
