I am co-organizing an Optimization Workshop in Colombia (my home country). If you are a student interested in participating, please consider submitting a poster.

About #

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics and the Mathematical Institute for Data Science with a secondary appointment in the Department of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University. Before that, I was Postdoctoral Scholar at Caltech hosted by Venkat Chandrasekaran and Joel Tropp. I obtained my PhD in Applied Mathematics from Cornell University advised by Damek Davis. I completed a MSc in Mathematics and two BS in Mathematics, and in Systems and Computing Engineering at Universidad de los Andes.
