About:
My research is mostly in infinite group theory, particularly groups acting on trees or Cantor sets. I am interested in self-similar groups, profinite groups and more general totally disconnected locally compact groups.
I am a member of ICMAT since 2020. Currently, I am Profesor Ayudante Doctor (≈ Lecturer / Assistant Professor) at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Until September 2020, I held the same position at the at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Between 2018 and early 2020, I was Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Zero-Dimensional Symmetry Group at the University of Newcastle, Australia. From 2016 to 2018, I was Alexander von Humboldt postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Düsseldorf, Germany. Before that, I was Assistante Postdoctorale at the University of Geneva.
I completed my DPhil at the University of Oxford in July 2015, under the supervision of John Wilson. My undergraduate degree is from the University of St Andrews, Scotland.
