I am an academic researcher at the University of the Americas and serve as an editor for the Journal of Soil Science and Plant Nutrition (Springer). I hold a PhD in Soil Chemistry and Nanotechnology from the University of La Frontera. Prior to my current position, I completed two consecutive Postdoctoral Research Fellowships at the University of La Frontera (UFRO; 2022–2023 and 2023–2025), supported by UFRO and Agencia Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo. My research focuses on soil chemistry, nanotechnology, environmental pollution, microplastics, engineered nanoparticles, and emerging contaminants, with a special interest in their interactions within soil systems.
