I am a Postdoctoral researcher at ESAT-PSI, KU Leuven, working under the guidance of Tinne Tuytelaars and Marie-Francine Moens. My current research focuses on Language Models and Continual Learning.

I completed a joint PhD program from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile and KU Leuven under the supervision of Professors Alvaro Soto and Marie-Francine Moens. My research focused on improving language models by integrating insights from human language processing. Throughout this period, I was associated with respected laboratories and institutions, including LIIR, IALab, IMFD, and CENIA. Prior to my doctoral studies, I obtained a master’s degree from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, specializing in robotics and machine learning.
