Bioinformatics scientist in Mexico City working on microbiome metabarcoding (16S/18S rRNA), reproducible NGS pipelines and bioinformatics software. PhD candidate in Biological and Health Sciences, and founder of Bioagens, a web platform of bioinformatics tools for genomic and metagenomic research.
- MetagenApp: a reproducible 16S/18S metabarcoding pipeline (VSEARCH + Wang-style naive Bayes classifier), benchmarked against mothur and QIIME 2. Presented as a poster at ECCB 2026 (Geneva).

- Actopan microbiome: prokaryotic and eukaryotic communities in oysters (Crassostrea virginica), river water and human feces from Chachalacas, Veracruz (PhD project, manuscript in preparation).
- Bioagens: a set of web GUIs for QIIME 2, mothur, assembly, variant calling, RNA-seq and more, running on self-hosted infrastructure.
- Exploring deep learning on DNA sequences (embeddings + clustering for taxonomic assignment).
